Westwood College-Denver North Top Questions

If I were to look back at myself in high school I would tell myself to focus on school and go straight into college. Because of my home life, school was the last thing I thought about. I had to find food for my sister and I because my parents were not responsible. I also became a teen parent my senior year. This presented a lot of challenges to me. I never thought about continuing on in school. But, after watching my wife so passionately complete her BSN degree, I decided I needed to go back to better myself and my family. I am proud to show my 13 year old son it's never to late to fulfill your dreams and to never give up. I just wish I would have gone to school right out of high school so my life could already be on the path of success.

I would tell my high school senior self to get better grades and be more involved with the community and extracurricular activities. To better prepare myself for college level courses and apply for as many scholarships as possible. I'd explain that focusing on good SAT, ACT, and AP scores combined with the best grades and creditbility can get me to any University in the state, country at that. I would also say to study not only for grades, but to expand my knowledge beyond the standard course material for future reference.

If I were able to go back in time and talk to myself, I would say, "Apply to scholarships, they can save you from loans and debts!" I would push myself to apply to many more colleges. Suggesting to move out of this town would also pop out and getting myself to look harder for a better degree.

If I were able to go back in time and have a conversation with myself, I'd tell myself to quit wasting time and join the military. Not only are the doors to college easier to walk through after the military, but the career choices are also very abundant. Those two combinations are powerful tools in securing a future. Plus, the education would be paid for by the military, thus a free education and great career options. Even knowing I'm a hard knocks learner, I'd beat those ideas into myself until I couldn't take it anymore and the only way to make my future self leave is to 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} agree to the terms of going in the military and getting my CJ degree on the government.

So far, out of my college experience, I have learned a lot more responsibility. With out these valuble responsibility lessons that i have come across I may not have taken the responsibility to pay my bills on time every month. Also, in college, my people skills have steadily developed to a point where i could start a conversation with any random person.

My eyes were opened to a whole new world as a college student. I was able to choose the subjects I was interested in and in those classes, I was awakened by new points of view on politics, religion and life in general. Through my experiences I was able to construct a foundation for a strong bright future. I created goals that I have yet to reach but definitely will. A degree for me, as an Arabian woman and mother, is a weapon that I will use to fight anyone who stands in the way of my success. My success as a mother before anything else. I want to set an example for my children and show them that with a degree the world is at their fingertips. Through my college experience and the people that I met, I learned to be strong and wise. I can't wait to finish my degree and begin a whole new life.

As soon as I walked into the door the atmosphere in their was great automatically. They were the most helpful people and made me feel very comfortable. With all of this going on and how they treated me with their kindness and helpfulness it made me want to sign up and go to their school because if the administration staff was so helpful what are the teacher's going to be like. It made me want to find out.

The most important thing that I gained from college has been myself. What I mean is that I finally found my strengths, weaknesses and what I really love. That is the most amazing thing anyone could ask for.

so far nothing, iam looking to better my education to help me and my three children better our future. Thank you.

westwood college have given me the drive to succeed in what i want to do. The teachers are the most wonderful, helpful, and understanding people i have ever met. I believe that becuase i have the support from the school that i do i will not only graduate but i will find the right job for me and succeed through out my career. In high school i had a hard time becasue the teachers werent as willing to help me, but thats the totall opposite her. They push me to succeed and be better which is what i need.
