What do I want..................?

An ideal university:

Admission:

A fair admission process is imperative for a university to be successful. The admissions office needs to have a curriculum that all potential applicants should meet: An increase of percentage of out of state, in state students, and international should be accepted every year. A minimum of a 3.5 GPA is required to enter a university. Applicants should have taken a minimum of 3 IB/AP courses, in addition to completing four years of a language of their interest. Applicants should be well-rounded and unique. Every potential student of a university should be interviewed.

Majors/Courses

As freshmen they should be able to enroll in classes relevant to their interest without having to follow strict general education requirements. Once students explore, they need to meet with their academic advisor and find out the majors that would appeal to their interest. Lectures should be split into discussion and application of knowledge and the other half should be dedicated to the teaching of the subject. Professors should be required to work closely with each student to assure that they comprehend the material taught. Students should be able to conduct research on their own and integrate their knowledge during class time with other classmates. Each professor‘s priority should be creating an effective learning environment instead of over assigning students with work. Every student should be required to study a language of their interest and become fluent at it; this opportunity would enable them to appreciate other cultures and communicate to other people in the world without difficulties.
Who I am and what I need?
I expect a university to integrate students and faculty who want to make a positive effective influence in the world. I want to be able to know my professors well and gain as much knowledge as I can. I want to be able to work with students from other colleges to create a creative learning environment. As well as interacting with different mentalities, nationalities, and communities to develop a challenging learning environment.

One of my favorite classes is English, every class I attended I become more mesmerized by my professor’s teaching style. Although it’s a short class, I walk out with a new piece of information. Her excitement and passion for what she teaches has made me more open minded in respect to the material she presents in class. Having the opportunity to explore into topics of our interest has stimulated me as a student and in fact made more passionate. What I respect about this professor, is, she respects each of the student’s opinion and takes it into consideration.

My other favorite class is Spanish. This semester my professor gave more encouragement to learn more about the language. She teaches and has discussions in class which allowed me as a student of the Spanish language to discover more details about each material presented.

An ideal university should encompass all of the above to make it an expectional experience for the students and faculty.
