Katie Whittington '17 Recruiting Profile

I would like to attend a premier university that allows me to become a well-rounded, exceptionally educated person who is ready to enter the professional world upon graduation.  I would like to join a program that continues to foster my love of soccer.  I am an excellent candidate for any program that demands supreme commitment to hard work and leadership.  I feel that I am different from other recruits in character because I believe in taking ownership of one's actions, both accomplishments and failures.  I am the fittest and fastest member of my team and am ranked number one in my sophomore class. I am a member of National Honor Society, pre-med club, and Human Rights International club. I am an elected Student Class Officer for the 2015-2016 school year. I volunteer regularly and am a member of my church's youth group, with whom I went on a mission trip to Standing Rock Reservation, SD during the summer of 2014, and to the Blackfeet Reservation in Heart Butte, Montana this past summer (2015). I am currently taking four AP courses and the rest are at a honors level, and I earned the score of a 5 on my AP European History test this past spring (2015). My art was recently featured in the Utah State Fair, and received honorable mention in the adult amateur division.
