College Admission Essay
For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by how machines and constructs
work. I have always wanted to know how cars were built and constructed. The problem is that
my curiosity cannot be satisfied by looking at just the exterior, I must also understand how
everything works. This need to figure out all the complexities in a system is exactly why your
program is so important to me. There is no place better than The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology to learn about these things.
Even when I was just a young child you could see my love for engineering. As would
many others, I had a fascination with everything I could build. My favorite toys were Legos
and building blocks, and I would play with them any chance I had. The main issue with this
was that my parents did not have the money to buy me many expensive Lego sets. This meant
that I needed to find something else that could scratch that itch.
Naturally, my parents were not going to buy me new toys. This meant that I had to find
something else to play with. Quickly I figured out that if you used a screwdriver on many of
the electronics found in my house, they would fall apart, and you can build them back up.
After this revelation, I would tear every single item apart and then put it back together. It was
during this process that I realized my love for engineering.
In conclusion, engineering is a big passion of mine. Ever since I was a small child it
has caught my eye. Your program gives me the opportunity to learn all about of my favorite
topics. At MIT, not only will I be able to advance in my field, but I can share my knowledge
with a diverse group of students. With your help, I will be able to contribute to society in a
meaningful way.
