Full Answer Section

After returning from my travels, I worked as a barista at a local coffee shop for six months. This experience taught me the importance of customer service and teamwork. It also helped me to save up money for college.

In 2022, I enrolled in a community college to take some general education courses. I earned a 4.0 GPA and was inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society.

I am transferring to the University of Miami because I am drawn to its strong academic programs, vibrant campus culture, and diverse student body. I am particularly interested in the University of Miami’s School of Business Administration, where I plan to study accounting.

I believe that my gap year experiences have made me a more mature and well-rounded individual. I am now more prepared to succeed in college and in the workforce. I am confident that I would be a valuable asset to the University of Miami community.

Timeline:

• 2021: Graduated from high school
• 2021-2022: Traveled, volunteered, and worked
• 2022-2023: Attended community college

Please note: I have attached a resume for your reference.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely, [Your Name]
