Assignment 7 - Ethan Scott - My Dream College

When talking about college with people at school I often hear from my peers that they want to go to highly prestigious schools and are going into intense and competitive fields where they would have lots of difficulty in achieving their goals whether they are realistic. Now don't get me wrong setting high goals for yourself can be very motivating and can lead to great success but I often find out that while you may strive exceptionally hard to achieve you may never reach it. Unlike most of my peers the ideal college for me would be the University of Kentucky. While they may not be the greatest academic school in the country I have seen that the University of Kentucky would just have far too many pros for me that I couldn't pass it up. Personally I really like the idea of staying close to home for college although I would like to stay in a dorm. I have also been a die hard Kentucky Wildcats fan my whole life and I cannot imagine passing up the opportunity to be a part of the fan base as a student. I am also very interested in pursuing music in college I have lots of experience with former U of K school of music attendees and feel as if it would be my best option.
