Reyhan AKSU '25 Recruiting Profile

Hello Dear Coaches,

I am Reyhan. I have been a student at NUN Schools, an international IB school, for five years. I completed my IB MYP project in the 9th grade. My project was to teach coding to middle school children, and I gave them many conferences. My IB DP CAS project consists of nine steps. There are nine projects: three creativity, three activity, and three service projects. I completed nine projects in one year. Also, in my CAS Project, I have something related to sports. For example, I joined and led the ACTIVENUN for my service and activity field. ACTIVENUN is a club where events and magazines are organized to improve our school socially and sportively. Being an active student of this club improved me socially. Likewise, we felt the spirit of sports in our school.

Furthermore, I started doing fitness as someone who wanted to feel good physically. In my 13-year volleyball career (school team, volleyball clubs, and matches), fitness has benefited me the most and given me discipline. Over time, it became an activity in which I found myself, and as I continued the process, I became motivated and attached to it. It has become a sport I have been doing regularly for 3 years and I have made great progress from beginning to end. I have been a student who has successfully kept her academic and social life alive with sports motivation. I have never seen sports as a waste of time or an obstacle. Sports are always a source that takes me one step further.

I took the IB Exams in November. I also took the SAT Exam in November and December. Furthermore, I took the IELTS in November. My GPA is 3.7. I have continued my education life without neglecting sports and school. I was successful in both. My target department in university is International Studies/Relations and Politics. I organized my characteristics by thinking about myself and asking reliable people around me.  I am someone who can maintain my motivation in every situation, has strong mental health is responsible, and can cope with difficulties. I am calm in times of crisis and focused on problem-solving. I maintain my concentration on what I am busy with and stick to my goal. I try to keep my self-confidence and self-belief within the framework of respect in every subject. As a disciplined student and athlete, I consider my academic and athletic achievements and always remain more motivated and disciplined toward success. If I continue to maintain this order that I have established throughout my life, I believe that I will achieve the same success in my business life. I am someone who makes a lot of plans for the future and progresses with sure steps. I use my high belief in myself as a source of motivation. Group psychology is critical in a team sport like volleyball. Therefore, I always support my team in times of crisis so that they can maintain mental control. I am with them on this path.

Sincerely,

Reyhan AKSU
