Essays are increasingly becoming one of the most important aspects of college and scholarship applications. In a limited word count, students must communicate who they are beyond the numbers and why they deserve to be admitted amidst tens of thousands of other qualified applicants. Sometimes it is difficult to know where to begin, but reading past successful essays can provide inspiration to spark the creative writing process.
We will provide you access to the successful essays we wrote. Check out our profiles to see which colleges/programs we were admitted to! Feel free to email us with questions about which major(s) or college(s) we applied to within each university, if needed.
