Personal Statement
As a hockey player I’m looking for a college that will assist me in furthering my career as a goaltender. As a goaltender living in Mullica Hill, NJ, I have been the starting goalie for my high school varsity team my freshman and sophomore years while also playing club hockey at various levels. I was the first goalie selected for the 2016-2017 Junior/Senior Varsity All-Star game as a sophomore. This is an example of not only my skill level, but my dedication to hockey and my desire to get better as a player. I’m looking for a school with a strong and successful hockey program and a good coach committed to assisting me in becoming a better player and person. I believe I would excel in this environment as I am considered to be a highly "coachable" player.
As a student I am looking for a larger school that has a strong nursing program. My interest in nursing came from my grandmother who has been a nurse for over fifty years. Financial assistance is an important factor to me in selecting the right college. I am willing to go farther away if financial aid is offered or to an institution with lower out-of-pocket expenses.
