Untraditional Creativity: My Enrollment Spreadsheet

Published on 10 / 29 / 2024

While one may not consider this as creative, designing an Excel sheet efficiently and colorfully takes a lot of work and is DEFINITELY creative! Since I am a transfer student, there was a lot of calculations, research, and writing I had to undergo to be on the same track as everyone else. Many didn't know what to do with me, as I had so many credits of different backgrounds and strong ambitions for my plan at this school. The one thing that helped me keep it all in one place was my Transfer Student Excel Spreadsheet. Consisting of three pages, color-coding, dropdowns, and more, all staff members were impressed by its thoroughness and efficiency. I picked fonts, programmed columns, and incorporated various features to make the Spreadsheet more interactive and readable. It was a fun process that expressed my creativity within the digital world!

The first page of the Excel. Represents required curriculars and the progress on them.

The second page of the Excel. Includes all the possible Journalism classes (my major) I could take and what I need.

The third and last sheet of the Excel. Outlines my schedule for next semester and the following, with teachers and timeslots.

A deleted version of the Journalism page, which ended up having outdated requirements. Still cute!
