I am excited about exploring and learning about my passion in an actual college campus.  I am mostly nervous about working with other students that I have never worked with  before and making new friends can be challenging, especially when I do not know any of the students. A challenge that I might face in the program might be actually to understanding the new material that I will learn on the program because new material could sometimes be difficult to understand at first. I will overcome this challenge by taking notes on a separate Google document or in a notebook so that I can study the material and better understand the concepts that I need to understand. 

I would like to thank you so much for your generosity. I really appreciate the support from you. Without your help, I could not have gotten a chance to explore and take a chance to do the things that I like, like coding, at Columbia University, which is really important in engineering. You have helped me out a lot and I wanted to take a chance and thank you for all you have done.
