Personal Statement

Ever since I  could comprehend what was being said and what was going on around me I knew I wanted to be the first person in my family to set and accomplish a goal, that goal would be to be the best version of myself I possibly can weather it's in football or the career I decide to major in which will be sports medicine. I want to major in sports medicine because along my journey of being a football player since the age of 10 I developed a love and passion not only for football but for all sports and it sucks to see such good amazing players and people lose their career to an injury and i want to be able to contribute in helping players recover from sport related injuries. I'm going to college and accomplishing this goal not only to prove to my family and little sisters that anything you set your mind to is possible but I also want to prove it to myself and be proud and satisfied with myself. My dad dropped out of high school and became an amateur carpenter and due to the fact that he didn't finish high school my younger sisters don't have much to look up to, and this is where my role as an older brother will ply a big part in their lives by setting an example. This is where going to college and getting an education is going to help me accomplish my goal, going to college will not only help me accomplish my goal but it will also help me better myself as an individual. Which is why I believe your institution would be a perfect fit for me.
