How ICC has Changed my Life

ICC has changed my life around in a very positive way.  Since I got in trouble with my school for violating the drug and alcohol policy twice I was kicked out of all clubs and sports. Clubs and sports were my life in high school and since I could not be in any there was no point for me to stay there Also, Delavan High School is very small which limited my class choices.  Being third in my class I did not want to take blow off classes and instead decided to graduate early to try to get college credits before I go off to a big university.  Because of ICC I should be ahead of the game before I step foot on A big universities campus and it has also gave more confidence going to a big school.  I have some what knowledge how much work and effort you must put into school now.  The point of this topic is the ICC has turned my life around and will help me better transition into a big college than my high school could which in the end could hopefully make me more successful in the near future.  Hard work and determination is the felt sense I get when thinking of this topic.  Although by graduating early and losing my senior year I have put myself in a situation that requires more effort out of me, it should come back and help me further in the end.  By taking all of my transferable classes at ICC I should be saving some money on school, get a head start at Purdue, and be more prepared for the rigors that Purdue has to offer.

  1. Third in your class? Wow! That's fantastic. :)

    I think this is the heart of a strong essay, Dillon.
