Tuck Personal Statement

Although the many roles of a business professor are difficult to determine, Mercer University’s mission statement provides a surprisingly thorough account of these roles. The mission statement, “to teach, to learn, to create, to discover, to inspire, to empower and to serve,” may not seem like a description of the roles, but one would struggle fruitlessly to think of a great business professor who did not fulfill these roles. The importance of these roles is undeniable, however, among these roles, learning is especially important and is also the most appealing to me.

I have, if not an obsession, a passion for studying finance. Aspiring to work in Investment Banking, I applied to Ross as it provides excellent exposure to the world of finance through premiere recruiting opportunities and a well-constructed business curriculum that merges the science of economics with the cultivation of leadership. At Michigan, freshman students are subject to a liberal arts curriculum, which I believe can benefit me in becoming a well-rounded student. Although I have a passion for finance, I cannot imagine isolating my studies to one subject for four years of school. In my Sophomore year, I would dive into financial studies such as accounting and business strategy; but Ross also emphasizes the ‘positive decisions’ course, which interests me because it acknowledges the impact that economic decisions have on society. Coming from a middle class background, I find it important to acknowledge the effect that the cost of living or price of gas have on family finances. Ross’s Junior and Senior curriculums step past the theoretical studies of economics and into the real world application of business skills, such as ‘communication strategy’ and ‘corporate strategy.’ I believe exposure to a collaborative environment in these years can assist me in cultivating a team

Despite the aforesaid I was determined to brake the chains that society had placed upon me, and apply to colleges.

In an overall sense, I feel that there has been a lack of real world correlation. Although many teachers have taught me a lot, as Dr. Woodyard says, “Unfortunately other students at bigger schools may have an advantage in the business world since they have more of a focus on their subjects. However, the OS program will allow you to get back in that race”. As of now, I have the desire to learn from more than simply sitting in a classroom and I am searching for more of an active opportunity. I believe the OS program is what I am looking for, as I will be able to learn in the form of seminars, projects, and workshops.
