Applicaions

A college application is a customary part of the competitive college admissions system. Admissions departments usually ask students to complete an application for admission that often consists of personal essays (as well as samples of high school work), letters of recommendation, and a list of extra-curricular activities. Some schools require the SAT or ACT, while others make it optional.

Housing

A house is a building lived in by people. The word house may also refer to a building that shelters animals, especially in a zoo. It generally has walls and a roof to shelter its enclosed space from precipitation, wind, heat, cold, and other elements. Domestic pets and "unwanted" animals (such as mice) often live in houses. The social unit that lives in a house is known as a household. Most commonly, a household is a family unit of some kind, though households can be other social groups, such as single persons, or groups of unrelated individuals. Settled agrarian and industrial societies are composed of household units living permanently in housing of various types, according to a variety of forms of Land tenure. English-speaking people generally call any building they routinely occupy home. Many people leave their house during the day for work and recreation but typically return to it to sleep or for other activities.

Parking

Parking is the act of stopping a vehicle and leaving it unoccupied for more than a brief time. It is against the law virtually everywhere to park a vehicle in the middle of a highway or road; parking on one or both sides of a road, however, is commonly permitted. Parking facilities are constructed in combination with most buildings, to facilitate the coming and going of the buildings' users.
