Highschool Educational Goals
I have many educational goals following my highschool graduation. Throughout highschool, I held myself to very high standards, and I always strived for good grades. My goal was to achieve high honors every year, and I accomplished this. In college, My goal is to continue to not only pass my classes, but excel in all of them. This is very important to me and my family, and I will take all the steps necessary to meet my goal. Another future goal of mine is to graduate college and earn a bachelor's degree in civil engineering. This is important to me because this degree will prove that I have the required knowledge to be an engineer.

    The most important goal for my future is to obtain a satisfying career. Growing up I saw how unhappy my mother was working at a job that she hated just to make enough to provide for our family. I further understood how important a satisfying career was to me when I started working the graveyard shift as a dockworker during community college. I strongly disliked almost everything about the job including the exposure to extreme temperatures, the job’s filthy nature, the long and irregular hours, and most of all because it was unfulfilling. I was miserable with my occupation but I was dependent on it because it was lucrative and provided me with a way to support myself through college. I worked fulltime at this job for two years while also being a fulltime student until I transferred to SIU. The dread that I felt toward my job made me work harder academically because I knew that someday my hard work would amount to a career that I thoroughly…

    When it comes to my education my short-term goal is to finish out this school year and maintain my current GPA. I find it easier to motivate myself each day if I have set in stone grade goals in mind. My long-term education goal is to finish my Associate of Applied Business degree in spring 2017 and my Associate of Arts degree in spring of 2018. I have enough classes and credit hours to finish a second associate degree in two part-time semesters. My short term career goal is to continue where I am until I graduate and learn as much as I can from those around me.
