HOW TO GET ACCEPTED TO FULLGATE UNIVERSITY
By Alex Herd, Fullgate University Admissions Office. It is time to start applying for university. Some students will be successful, but others will not. If you have what to do to improve your chances of success. First, you must apply early. You must apply before the application deadline. This is, perhaps, the most important consideration. We receive a lot of application from excellent students who we have to reject because they sent us their application far too late. Make sure to apply before January 17th. Fullgate University believes that after-school activities such as volunteer work, sports participation, and employment are very important. We look for any activities that help develop a student's charater. Your grades are not the only aspect we consider. Finally, Fullgate University looks closely at letters of recommendation. We require at least three letters of recommendation. These should be written by people such as your teachers, sports club coaches, employers and the leaders of any volunteer organizations you belong to. We suggest that you get these as soon as possible so you can submit them with your application
NEW STUDENTS ! WELCOME TO BLUE OAK HIGH SCHOOL !
Congratulations on being accepted to Blue Oak High School. You are about to begin three exciting years and make memories that will stay you forever. We will have our freshman student orientation next Wednesday (September 2nd) in the school gymnasium. The opening ceremony will begin at 9a.m. You should arrive to check attendace at 8:30 a.m. Don't be late on your first day ! You will need to bring your student ID card and a copy of your class schedule. You will have a chance to talk with some of your new teachers and you can ask them questions about your schedule and classes. It will also be a good chance to meet your new classmates. Last year, we had the famous movie actor Tim Grimley as a guest speaker ( Tim graduated from Blue Oak High in 1990). This year, our guest speaker is a surprise !!! If you want to know who it is, you have to come to the orientation and see for yourself !
The gymnasium is easy to find. Just go to the library and turn left. The gymnasium is the blue buiding next to the cafeteria. You will find a map of the school on the reverse of this letter. After the orientation you will be dismissed and classes will begin at 8:30a.m on Thursday.
A lot of people think that being an animal doctor is very easy, but it is not. First, the training is very difficult. A person has to learn the same basic medical information as a doctor for people. Then, a person has to learn about how diffirent animals have their organs is different places. Human organs are in the same position in all people. However, a dog's heart is in a different location than a cat's heart, animal doctors need to know that. Also, animal doctors need to be good at understanding animals. Animals cannot talk and tell you what is wrong, so you have to learn how to undertand without words. I think that this is the most important quality.
