Personal Statement

My name is Efosa Osas, I am a first generation Italian & I am also the son of Nigerian immigrants. When my parents moved to Italy they where moving there to have a better life for me and my 2 siblings. Because my parents where very young; they did not have a job and they did not have the resources to go to college. The reason I want to go to college is so that my parents sacrifice for me and my siblings doesn't go to waist, and so I can achieve my goal in getting a bachelor's degree in a subject related to cartography & playing in the NFL. Nobody is a great person, but I can say that on game days I will always bring 100%, and in practice I will always be the one to get things going while still having some fun. Off the field I understand my responsibility as a STUDENT- Athlete, and will always try my best in the classroom; I am a firm believer in God, and I rarely ever go out to parties and events. I am very outgoing and have so much respect for my elders; I understand life is not just flowers and butterflies, but I promise you through out all the hardships I will always be positive and ready to work.
