Personal essay on application to European school of economics

¶ … European School of Economics in London

Studying at the European School of Economics in London has always been a dream of mine. My recent education includes a graduate degree from the Yeditepe University in Istanbul, Turkey. My major is in English literature, so I encounter no communication impediments or language barriers.

I have dedicated the best years of my youth to continuous study and improvement and I seek to continue to do this in London as well. I am an optimistic and ambitious person and strive firmly to attain the objectives I set out for my self. This commitment to my own professional future, as well as the respect for the learning process, the teachers and the fellow colleagues makes me a noteworthy candidate and future student.

At a personal level, I enjoy nature walks and physical exercise. I believe that health is a complex outcome that can only be obtained through both mental and physical health. Mens sana in corpore sano. At a more particular level, I enjoy horseback riding and playing tennis. I am nevertheless interested in learning any new sport and I look forward to joining a sports team at the academy.

In terms of the practical qualifications, I spent eight months doing internship. Two of the internship months were spent and Vogue and the other six months of internship were spent at a cookshop cafe. During this period, I came to exercise my learned skills, but also develop new ones. I especially learned how to interact better and how to communicate better in various circumstances.

I feel that there are two more things I need to address. The first is represented by the benefits I would experience from participating to the courses of the European School of Economics, and the second is represented by the benefits I myself would be able to create for the school.

From a personal perspective, I thrive to participate in the educational process of the European School of Economics due to the prestige of this academic institution, but also as a result of the hopes for future gains. I expect the classes to introduce me to a new world. I expect the professors to guide me and help me understand concepts and situations from different and infinitely more complex angles. I expect to collaborate with my fellow colleagues and to set the basis for life long friendships.
