Entrance essay
I'm writing a 250 word essay about my profesional goals for an adult undergrad program at endicott. Any suggestion/corrections would be greatly appreciated.
My professional goals are that of any other high school dropout. Succeed in any way possible. I didn't choose my profession, it is one that was available to me and I took it. After spending two years floating in various teaching institutions, I realized that full time education was not for me. I dropped out and began working for my father's small yacht yard as an outboard engine mechanic. I've worked there for six years and am very content with my job, but in the past year have found myself wanting more out of my career and myself. I wish to apply to an adult undergraduate business program in order to further my education in the hopes of one day taking over for my father in our family business. Though I have a strong understanding of the day to day operations of the business and personnel, I hope to advance my knowledge of subjects like accounting and computer science. These are important skills when thinking about running any business, and frankly, they are skills in which I have not been able to learn in day to day life. My hope is that by continuing my education, I can better prepare myself for future challenges. I do not plan to be a full time student, but rather a part time student, taking only classes that will better prepare me for the challenges of being a small business owner. This program sounds like a good fit for someone who wants to further their education and build a better foundation for their future career and I am very interested in both.
