Honors Transfer Rider Program Analysis
When I transferred to Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU), I was fortunate to be selected to the Honors Transfer Fellows program. As a requirement of this program, I was required to complete an undergraduate thesis and take additional classes along with the regular curriculum for my major. While this project was a valuable experience, it was also challenging to balance the workload of conducting thesis research, attending classes, working part time, and working as a clinician at the MTSU Speech Clinic. Over the past year, I have developed skills, such as time management and prioritization, that have helped me succeed as a student at MTSU. Additionally, completing a thesis while attending classes and working has helped me become an independent student. To explain, over the course of the entire project, I had only two deadlines, one for the proposal submission and one for thesis submission. As a result, I had to create my own deadlines for various aspects of the thesis, such as data collection and analysis.

These skills have greatly contributed to my academic success as I have maintained a 4.0 GPA and successfully completed my thesis. Also, some of these skills have been beneficial at my job as I have been promoted twice in the past year. I believe the projects and classes I have taken have not only academically prepared me for graduate school, but also given me the necessary skills to be successful while furthering my education. In particularly, as the program at New York University is online, I will need to utilize my strengths of independently setting and meeting deadlines, time management, and prioritization to be successful in this program. I am confident that I have developed the necessary skills and study habits to successfully complete the online graduate program at New York
