My name is Susan Saranya Jacob and I am a 9th grader from the Plymouth- Canton Educational Park. I am interested in this program because I want the rigorous, academic challenges that come with it. I am currently enrolled in the International Bachelorette (IB) program at my high school, but I do not feel like the academy or my school has what it takes to prepare me for college.
Growing up my family traveled all around the world. When I was in fifth grade my dad’s job moved my family to China, living there we had so many great experiences. Over the course of two years, we traveled to multiple countries that I never thought I would ever see. None of that would have happened if my dad did not have such a successful career. One day I want to be able to travel the world with my own family, without wealth being an impediment.
By attending the ECA program I hope to build a strong foundation for my future. Beyond college, I hope to find a stable job in the field I want to pursue. I hope to enjoy my job without working for years to pay off student debt. Statistics show that over 44 million Americans collectively hold nearly $1.5 trillion in student debt. ECA will give me and so many others the opportunity to graduate high school with college credit and, hopefully, a debt-free future.

So far it may seem as if money is my only motive to apply to the program, but that is not true. Starting my freshman year at Plymouth high school I always felt like something was missing. My classes were not challenging, my teachers were not optimal, and I felt like the environment itself could not support my social or educational needs. That’s when my best-friend Sydney Davis and her sister Symone told me about the program, and it sounded like the perfect fit for me! From what I have heard, ECA provides an amazing support system and an exceptionally guided transition to college courses.
The thought of college came faster than I expected. In my mind, college was a place where I would constantly be working and rarely have time for myself. I understand that I am not yet done with high school, in fact, I have barely started. I not only want to prepare for my future, I also want to make worth fighting for. After all of those years in college, I want to find a career that allows me to help people and leave my mark on the world.
Christiano Ronaldo once said “I learned all about life with a ball at my feet”, I never fully understood what he meant until this year. I have been playing soccer for about four years now and I love everything about it. The game has never failed to teach me something new. Through the years, and multiple different teams, I have learned the importance of social skills and teamwork. I would be nervous but excited to have the opportunity to try out for a team in a different school district.
Leaving my home school behind would be hard especially after making some truly great connections. Joining ECA would almost feel like skipping high school, there is a lot that I would miss about Plymouth Canton Schools but I know that it will be worth it. I have heard so many great things about ECA and what it has to offer, It would be an honor to be accepted into the program.
