I need help with my statement of intent for my college application. Does this sound okay. Could you tell me if I made any grammatical errors? Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thank you!

What are the core skills and knowledge you hope to acquire by completing a degree in this major and how do you plan to apply these when you graduate?

The knowledge I hope to attain by completing a Bachelor of Science in Accounting at the University of Florida is a complete understanding in the field of accounting. I also hope to absolutely understand how to apply this knowledge in the real world. The core skills I hope to acquire are the arts of analyzing, interpreting, and communicating financial information. While completing my studies at the University of Florida I plan to do an internship with an accounting firm in order to accumulate work experience and master my craft. After achieving my Bachelor of Science degree I hope to continue my studies at the Fisher School of Accounting and receive my Masters in Accounting. When I have completed, my studies I aspire to become a Certified Public Accountant. Following my certification as a public accountant, I hope to be hired by one of the four major accounting firms and specialize in forensic accountancy.

Please provide any other information about yourself that you feel will help this college make an admission decision. This may include work, research, volunteer activities or other experiences pertaining to the degree program.

As my academic history shows, I am extremely dedicated to my studies. In my Junior year of high school, I became a home schooled student through the Florida Virtual School program. Since starting the program in May of 2007, I have gone to school non stop. Although I received my high school education through the Florida Virtual School program, my original high school was gracious enough to let me graduate with the rest of my class. The FLVS program takes a large amount of hard work and dedication to complete because it is a self teaching system. If you are not motivated to do the work and learn, you will not pass. I think the fact that I complete high school though FLVS is a testament to how dedicated I am to learning. While completing high school through Florida Virtual School, I also participated in the dual enrollment program. Through this program I was able to graduate high school with six credit hours of college already completed. While on small breaks between semesters, I cleaned houses and pet sat as a way to gain some income and keep myself busy. I am also a note taker with the Office of Students with Disabilities. I assist a woman with a visual impairment in my Composition II class. Recently, I have become a member of Phi Theta Kappa and I am looking forward to helping my community through this organization. Getting an education is the most important thing in my life, everything else is secondary. If excepted into your institution, I would apply my entire self and work as hard as I could to live up to the prestige that surrounds the University of Florida. I sincerely thank you for reviewing and considering my application.
