I prefer M.A. rather than M.F.A. Actually, i don't the difference between the two. Maybe M.F.A is for writing arts major students. Because I am a finance major student, I will choose M.A for my graduate school. I think I will apply Temple University for my graduate school.

If I don't want to study in a graduate school, I will enter the financial market, may be working in a bank or a stock company after graduated from Rowan.

I think my stand-out accomplishment is my working experience. I have worked in a bank for one month in China. This working experience is related with my major and I was familiar with some professional work of personal financial management. Besides, I was employed by an intelligent company as an accounting assistant in the summer 2010.

As I am not a writing major student, I do not a writing niche and any plan for my future writing. But in this class, I will regard me as a writer. I think I can be a business writer because my major is finance. I can write reports, forum and blogs for some newspapers and magezines. Besides, I want to be a NBA reporter who can write some basketball articles for NBA.com. 
For the business writing, I think my writing life will not be too long. It will be about 5 years. During these 5 years, I will analyse some finance and economic condition between the USA and China. And then I will write some reports for both countries. I will also write some articles about American economic situation for Chinese people and make them know better about America. After that, I will give up my writing career because I want to be a financial specialist.
If I choose to be a sports writer, I think my writing life will be longer, at leat 20 years. Because I really like sports, especially NBA. I always read a lot of sports articles. I think it will be interesting because my job is based on my interet. I will love this kind of writing.    

My name is Chao Zhao. I am an international student from China. I am finance major and I am junior. I like  sports, tennis, basketball and soccer and I am a big fan of NBA.
I am not a writing arts major student. The reason of taking this course is because I need one more credit for my free elective. Last semester, I took professor Reynolds' CCII course and I knew there would be an one credit course named Research Method from her.  Unfortunately, the course was canceled at the beginning of this semester. So I have to register this course named Career in Writing Arts.
Although I am not a writing major student, I want to improve my writing skills. Finance major requires writing as well. As I am a junior student, I need to write resume, cover letter and act plan. Besides, I am taking a writing intensive course this semester. So I think taking this class will benefit me a lot. 
The project will be a big chanllege for me. I never interview anyone in the US. I hope I can do better in this semester and improve my writing skill more.
