Admission to Fine Arts

Career Goals and an NYIT Education

I've always gone through life thinking that I could do more. I've always felt that I could accomplish more if I were given the right chance and if the right opportunity presented itself. The day I learned about the Master of Fine Arts program of New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) was the day I found the right chance that I was waiting for. This is the chance that would allow me to do more, and this application is the right opportunity.

My application for inclusion in the Master of Fine Arts program is influenced by three things:

Who I am,

What I want to accomplish, and How NYIT Fine Arts can help me be what I want to be.

Who I Am and What I Want to Accomplish finished my undergraduate studies in mechanical engineering at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI). There I had the strong desire to learn so I studied hard. My academic experiences at RPI taught me a great deal on how to move to a higher level of independence and success.

I have always been highly-motivated, energetic and hard-working in all the endeavors that I've faced through the years. I always strive to be the best that I can be. With all of these come discipline and persistence, be it the workplace or in the academic setting. I take all these qualities with me wherever I go. And I hope, with a chance at an NYIT education, to be able to move further up the ladder of success.

Overall, I consider myself to be a very career-oriented person. But the most important aspect of me, as a person, is my drive. I am driven by my passion and a dream. In the back of my mind is the ultimate goal of setting up my very own company. I've already mapped out my plan of action and the next phase is to be accepted into the Master of Fine Arts program.

Why an NYIT Fine Arts Education

NYIT Fine Arts is a hallmark in the industry in terms of quality programs and faculty excellence. I would like to be able to draw from the knowledge that the NYIT Fine Arts' faculty artists can impart, especially since the faculty complement is recognized as the best in the industry. The same can be said for NYIT's technical facilities, which serve as benchmarks for other institutions. I know that what I have is limited and an NYIT education will definitely fill the gaps in my talents and capabilities.

NYIT's goal is directly supportive of my purpose in life. I believe NYIT Fine Arts can, and definitely will, not only "make me as good as I can be" but also "turn me into the best that I can be." I believe that NYIT Fine Arts' creative and competitive environment will make me achieve this end result. This type of academic environment will allow me to further develop my potential and, in the process, drive me to create works I could call my own. This has a very deep impact on what I would want to accomplish: create something I could call my own and be proud of and, at the same time, serve as fuel for my entrepreneurial goal.
