My goals for this value are to stay organized, maintain high grades, and seek help when I need it. I hope to do this by setting aside time for my work and study no matter how busy or stressed my life may be at any given time. I will also work hard and avoid distractions. High stress is often difficult to avert, so I will find activities to help balance my life. For each class I have, I will take two hours out of my day for work involved with every one.

As I progress through college, the harder classes will be added in. Such as higher level art and science classes. Sometimes it is a challenge for me to seek out help. I try to do things on my own without asking others. I know that if I am really struggling I will find resources on the Marywood campus. Throughout college, I want to achieve all of these goals for the core value,

    Keeping my three personal and professional goals realistic, I would have to say a personal goal is to finish school at SNHU with a 3.0 GPA or above. I think a way for me to accomplish this goal is to stay focused on the tasks at hand, maintain a good relationship with my advisors and to utilize some of the tutoring options that are available to me as a student.
