1. University of Oregon provides a Forensics Program that incorporates competing for speech/debate events. The program is in my interest as I have the skills of argumentation and public speaking.

2. University of Oregon is surrounded by lots of trees, almost like an arboretum. To get through the campus stadiums, you may need to walk through the woods or cross a river. This is my type of entertainment as I love physical activities and enjoy the beauty of nature. ]]> 2022-02-01 21:48:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024333170 Rochester Institute of Technology https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024369455 Adrian Burke

UH, Manoa is full of the history of Hawaii, and learning more about my home and appreciating where I come from is so satisfying. Since the ocean surrounds us, it is only fitting that UH has extensive biology classes you can major in, which I will do.

2) The graduation rate at UH Manoa is 60%, and the acceptance rate is 80%. With beautiful scenery, excellent, and optimistic percentages, this is what I'd call my dream school. It's close to home, and I can live with family during college. UH also provides scholarships to musicians in band/marching; I will most definitely take up music as my minor.]]> 2022-02-02 05:46:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024743351 Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024780311 Wilson Chau

1) A collegiate school that specializes in modern technology, MIT has so much to offer in that career field. Mathematics, science, engineering, and many more. It would be a dream for any student who's interested in STEM.

2) 82% of MIT undergraduates in 2021 graduated debt-free. The price of an MIT education varies for each student depending on how much they can afford. ]]> 2022-02-02 06:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024780311 Oral Roberts University (Arvy Atendido) https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024794645 1) Students have the same beliefs and I want to be able to surround myself with people that have similar interests as me. Spirit-empowered leaders attend ORU to grow in their faith.

2) Not only they have majors I am interested in, such as anything in the ministry field, but as well as offer dance and leadership studies. :)

I find this college interesting because a former friend of mines attended this university. They mentioned that everything is at a walking distance, so it is easily accessible to go to places. ORU has this huge prayer hand statute that looks incredibly cool, and I would love to see that in-person! ]]> 2022-02-02 06:50:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024794645 University of Washington https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024862748 Joshua Mori

1: Offers one of the best in the nation's business education and social science programs

2: Offers competitively low average tuition of 13k after financial aid 

This specific university is important to me because it was the first college tour that made me seriously start thinking about my plans after high school and choose what matters when deciding on a school.]]> 2022-02-02 07:52:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2024862748 University of Washington https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2025025329 Jhanessty Bautista

1.  Their Speech and Hearing Clinic provides valuable services to over 9,000 clients per year. Graduate students receive training from master clinicians in assessment and therapy techniques, including the use of new technologies. I am super interested in having that hands on learning experience as the field of speech pathology and psychology in general is purely built upon that in person interaction. 

2. Upon the many clinical services they operate, one of the few that I am particularly interested in is ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). At the University's clinic, they evaluate clients (ages 2-25) and threat them with many different modulates, such as visual supports. I am interested in this because of my desire to work with nonverbal autistic kids in the future ]]> 2022-02-02 09:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2025025329 University of Nevada, Las Vegas https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2025992037 Aaliyah Racadio-Kahoohanohano - Gr. 11

1. UNLV has a very great athletic program. More than 400 Rebels compete in the NCAA Division 1 as a member of the Mountain West Conference in 16 different sports. I find this interesting because this is definitely something I want to have at the college I end up at. I want to go to a school that has a great athletic program. 

2. Another fun fact about UNLV is that there are over 350 registered clubs. This means that there are a numerous amount of clubs to choose from that interests everybody. Im totally interested in this because now that I know that UNLV offers so much clubs, I can join the right one for me. ]]> 2022-02-02 18:09:31 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2025992037 UC Davis https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026115729 Abigail Hufalar

1. They have great programs for future veterinarians. In a 2019 study, UC Davis ranked #1 in Veterinary Science. 
2. Their campus aims for sustainability and trying to reduce their carbon footprints. They aim to be carbon neutral by 2025. ]]> 2022-02-02 19:08:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026115729 University of California, Los Angeles(UCLA) https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026316619 Adrianah Mercado

1) UCLA receives the most college applications than any university in the world and each year it sets a new record. This is interesting to me because it shows me that UCLA offers many classes that will help you towards your dream career which is probably why lots of people apply to UCLA.

2) Students at UCLA participate in the "Midnight Yell" during finals week. They participate in this "Midnight Yell" as a break from studying. This is interesting to me because I really like how the UCLA students alleviate their stress from studying by screaming and hearing other people scream will likely show that all the students are stressed and not alone.]]> 2022-02-02 21:12:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026316619 UC Davis https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026559159 Michaella Schroder

1. UC Davis is #25 in best nursing schools. I am interested in being a registered nurse and would like to go to California for College.  They are also widely known for their nursing program!

2. They are known for an active campus and very friendly. Since they accept international students their campus is very lively and I would love to go to a campus where I don't have to worry about making friends. ]]> 2022-02-03 01:10:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026559159 Columbia University (Marley Smith) https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026671696 1. Columbia university is one of the eight Ivy League schools, ones like Yale and Harvard. Requiring you to be at the top of your classes with AP or IB classes. With only a 7% acceptance rate. Which I think would challenge me to do better and take harder courses so that I could get into more prestigious schools.
2. This school is known for its Engineering, Computer Sciences, as well as things like Visual Arts and Literature. And is ranked 7th in the U.S. I’m not sure what I would like to do yet but I think as one of the Ivy League schools it would be a very helpful place to study at. ]]> 2022-02-03 03:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026671696 Arizona State University - Landen Paa landenpaa https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026755464 1. ASU accepts students with a GPA average of 3.42, unlike other universities where they accept a 4.0 only.

2. The university has a whopping total of 1,100 clubs.

The reason I want to enroll in this college is because of the cost of aid, which is 11,706. Another reason on why I want to enroll here is because they have a lot of degrees that I'm very interested in, like architecture, interior design and even digital art.]]> 2022-02-03 04:22:29 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026755464 University of California- Berkeley (Penelope Tupou) https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026804752 1) UC Berkeley has about 184 academic programs and departments, including top civil engineering programs. The university itself is ranked #1 for Civil Engineering programs and #3 for Best Engineering Schools in the U.S. 

2) Over 65% of UC Berkeley undergraduate students receive financial aid and about 48% of the students graduate debt-free, an important factor to think about in my future.

UC Berkeley is one of the schools I want to enroll in because it is not only accredited by ABET, Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc but is one of the best schools known for its engineering programs. It is also located in California, the state where I have the most family, so it would be easier to get some help and get familiar with my surroundings. Those are important factors when I want to pursue a career and education in Structural Civil Engineering. ]]> 2022-02-03 05:06:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026804752 Cornell University residentalexa https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026855196 Alexandra Luisdottir Perez

1. Cornell University has a veterinary medicine school. It's New York's first statutory college established by the State University system. I'm interested in the fact that it's located in upstate New York, as I've got family there.

2. Cornell University has the 2nd best DVM program in the country. They've got state-of-the-art technology; their students are hands-on from the first day and many of their students receive job offers before graduating. I'd really like to go to a school where I can be hands-on with the subjects I'm learning.

Bonus: They've got a lot of animal-related clubs, and they've got a wide-range of on campus housing. I love participating in extracurriculars + on campus housing seems like a fun concept.]]> 2022-02-03 06:00:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026855196 University of Hawaii at Hilo- Alexis Iha ahiiha1122 https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026879217 1. UH Hilo has an amazing marine biology program that is open to all students of all grades interested in the marine biology pathway.

2. UH Hilo also has different academic colleges for many types of interests. They include College of Agricultural, Forestry, and Natural Resource Management (CAFNRM), College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), College of Business and Economics (CoBE), College of Natural and Health Sciences (CNHS), College of Pharmacy, and College of Hawaiian Language. 

The reason I want to enroll into this specific school is because it has everything I am looking for. I have done research on this school and the marine biology program and I feel very confident that this is the school that I will be interested the most in going to.]]> 2022-02-03 06:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2026879217 New York Film Academy https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2027014888 Joshua

1. One of only 45 universities in the World to be ranked with 5 QS Stars, it is widely recognized as one of the most prestigious universities in Latin America.
2. In the 70s, the Tec was the first university in Mexico to use feminine grammar forms in the written text on its degree certificates to acknowledge the fact that the recipient was a woman.

I enrolled at ITESM because they are 1/3 schools in México that offer dual qualification when graduating with a degree. That means that I may be able to work for a country other than México that meets the schools' standards. It's also an international school, giving you the option to study abroad for a year.]]> 2022-02-03 21:01:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2028390082 Kapi'olani Community College https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2028586077 Karleina Bettencourt

UNLV is one of the most diverse universities for undergraduates which means that it wont be that hard to find people i'm comfortable with and can connect with.

2. UNLV has more than 80 majors to choose from and their own medicine school. Im interested in studying medicine so this intrigued me.

1. BYU is a private university in Laie, Hawaii owned & operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. BYU education is less expensive than similar private universities since a large portion of tuition is funded by LDS church tithing funds. 
2. BYU students are required to follow an honor code, which require behavior in line with LDS teachings. LDS students pay less for the tuition than non-LDS students. ( LDS membership is not a requirement for attendance.) I would definitely go to this school because I am a member of this church which means I would be paying less & they have an excellent nursing programs. ]]> 2022-02-05 19:21:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2030899226 NYU (New York University) https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2030983948 Heather Lynn Soberano 

1. NYU has a lot of opportunities and has a higher education. Also, it has the large student body, allows plenty of opportunity for you to meet individuals.

Located in Syracuse, New York, Syracuse University is a comprehensive, residential University with a high level of research activity that balances arts & sciences, and professions.

2. I find this college interesting because it's in New York state and it has a beautiful campus as well. The undergraduate programs are ranked high and 86% of the faculties have earned a PhDs or professional degrees.

UCLA is one of the smallest UC campuses (2nd smallest), because of its location in a dense part of a big town. UCLA is only 419 acres and just 10% of the size of the largest UC campus, UC Davis (5,300 acres). This is very interesting because I had always thought that UCLA was a pretty big campus, but it turns out it's one of the smallest UC campuses. 

2.) UCLA’s colors are “True Blue” and gold, and were chosen specifically to represent the state’s ocean and wildflowers. I find this interesting because to me it shows how important their state is to them. This allows me to understand how much school spirit they have for their school, which seems very fun and exciting.

In addition, I find this school important because I've aways dreamed of going to UCLA for as long as I can remember. Also, UCLA was there for one of my close relatives when they were going through one of the toughest times in their lives :) ]]> 2022-02-07 01:06:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2032019769 University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) nashahloo2 https://padlet.com/jjoseph410/UBCollegeHighlights/wish/2032183155 Nash Vida Ahloo

1.) UCLA is the only leading institution in the world found in the 20th century, I find this interesting because it is very hard to believe. There have been many colleges founded in the 20th century but none are leading institutions. I also find it hard to believe that UCLA was officially founded in the 20th century.
2.) UCLA also receives the most amount of undergraduate applications per year. I find this crazy because it is not known as the “best college” in the world however it is very popular. Many want to attend UCLA for different reasons and they receive so many different applications. Every year, the record for most applications is broken by this school. If i could make it in, it would be amazing to me.

1. This university thrives on diversity, changing the world, creativity and pushing their students to make a positive change. UCLA’s award-winning newspaper, the Daily Bruin, is the third most circulated newspaper in Los Angeles. It has been consistently ranked as the top college newspaper in the country. I love creativity and voice. 

2. "With over 125 majors in over 109 departments, UCLA boasts a 91% graduation rate and some of the most renowned faculty in the world including, fourteen Nobel Laureates and fifteen MacArthur Fellows. You can really tell how academics are a strong and they deserve the number one public university in the nation.

1. UH Mānoa has a student success center which is a one-stop shop for your academic needs and offers you services ranging from tutoring to advising to study groups to writing project assistance and supplemental instruction groups for challenging courses to meet your individual learning needs. I feel like this success center is something I need to focus on my academic goals.
