“This is 42nd Street-Port Authority Bus Terminal. Transfer is available to the 1, 2, 3, 7, A, E, N, and Q trains. Step into the train. Stand clear of the closing doors. ” This is it. Pushing slightly against the crowd I disembark the n-line train. A few steps away from me the 1 train is pulling into the station, the train taking me to the Upper West Side—or so I think. Enveloped by a throng of people, I don’t even bother to check...

As an applicant to the Huntsman Program in International Studies and Business, deciding between the Wharton School and the College of Arts and Sciences is incredibly difficult. Working as the financial analyst for Urban Plan, a mixed-use redevelopment simulation for microeconomics class, I realized how passionately I feel about studying business. Crunching the numbers, and more importantly knowing what they meant, satisfied me in a way that no other academic experience ever has. For the first time I was learning...

From its urban environment to its management program at the Scheller College of Business, Georgia Tech is the ideal place for me to pursue my interests and grow as an individual over the next four years. I try to bring an international perspective to everything I do, thus, I plan on taking full advantage of the International Plan from the moment I step foot on campus. Every university has a study abroad program, but few provide a rigorous four-year framework...

I am unaware of what it feels like to hold an opinion infallible only by virtue of its widespread acceptance. However, my refusal to conform...

As both a student and an individual, I have always considered myself a global citizen; an identity that permeates each of my particular interests. Whether I’m Skyping people from all over the world for work or studying international NGO’s in economics class, I am most inspired by subjects that defy the boundaries of one sole group of people. Deemed by some to be the “capital of the world,” New York City offers an incomparable opportunity to grow in...

“Non, je n’ai jamais froid,” (No, I’m never cold) I would always reply to my French host mother, imploring me to put on a jacket before stepping out into 12°C weather. Literalism aside, this motto serves as one of my core principles. I say that I am never cold, for I process discomfort differently than other people—I relish it. For as long as I can remember I have sought out circumstances that push me outside my comfort...
