Why do you want to join AKPSI?
As a prospective junior transfer student in the beginning of 2017, I had done
extensive research prior to hearing of my acceptance to the USC on student
organizations on campus that I hoped to get involved in. In search of a prestigious
professional fraternity, Alpha Kappa Psi was conspicuous among all the other
organizations, as the oldest (1905) and largest business fraternity in the world (265
active chapters in the nation). Holding brothers of all majors and backgrounds, I knew
there would be a certain uniqueness in the network of Alpha Kappa Psi unfindable
anywhere else.
Even then I still didn't know much about the Alpha Zeta chapter specifically of AKPSI besides
the hard facts but fortunately, I had the opportunity to approach two friends and active
members on their experiences with AKPSI. Both had spoke highly of the professionalism,
guidance, network, and everlasting brotherhood of the organization. This sincerity was proved
simply from meeting the brothers during the rush events. Right off the back at the meet the
chapter at the AKPSI house, from meeting the brothers and seeing the interactions between the
brothers, I immediately knew these were the people I wanted to be around for my next two
years. "work hard play hard" mindset of everyone
What can you contribute to AKPSI?
I believe my diverse experiences, skills, and character will make me a valuable
potential addition to this extraordinary organization. First off, as a transfer student, I
have the various experiences that I went through to get me to USC. I believe that
nothing can beat the perseverance of a transfer student. In addition, my teamwork and
leadership skills will become valuable as a brother of akpsi. I take pride in my
teamwork skills that were developed working part-time jobs in various industries since
high school. Collaboration and communication were important aspects in succeeding in
these jobs. Although I am a team player, I am also a leader. I have been elected for
leadership roles in school organizations such as the Student Government and a Honor
Society. I have also co-founded a career club. At work, I have taken initiative as a
leader amongst my coworkers in necessary situations when a manager or someone in a
leadership position is absent
Besides the brotherhood and friendships of course, I hope to gain the career and
professional guidance that I really need. As you can see from my resume, I haven't had
the opportunity to yet work in the my career field of interest. I hope that AKPSI can
guide me through that.
I have also grown a recent interest in consulting but do not know much about how to approach
it. I remember hearing from an active, Karina, who came in knowing nothing of consulting
before akpsi. Also brother Joann who used to be a business major but switched to CS with the
guidance of akpsi brothers. Without akpsi i wouldn't be able to have these mentors by my
side when i'm lost. having individuals around you who have similar career pursuits and and
passions similiar or greater than yours puts you in a better place
Also I hope that through working with akpsi, i'll grow and develop the skills needed to be
successful in the workforce. I haven't been properly taught these skills. Specifically, I hope to
learn to network better in all settings, and specifically related to that, i hope to improve my
communication and speaking skills. Lastly, I hope to be able to be a part of the amazing
AKPSI active and alumni network that I can fully benefit from.
Why did you choose your current major?
Interested in both the political science and business, I thought the IRGB Major was the
perfect hybrid between the two. Where I can learn the relations between international
actors while understanding it in the context of the global economy
Why did you choose USC?
Although it is corny the school pride was what made me really love USC, especially
because it wasn't found at my previous school, so there was really a sense of
belonging in the community. Also because USC has a perfect balance between
academic and social opportunities. And of course you can't forget the Trojan Network
that comes with attending this premier institution.
