3 Tips on Writing the College Essay
Thinking about beginning your college application essays, but not sure how to start? These 3 tips below can help!
1. Read the essay instructions
Make sure to understand the essay prompts, the number of prompts required by each school, and the word limits for each essay. You do not want to draft an essay of 800 words only to find out afterwards that the essay had a 350 word limit.
2. Revise
Make sure the essay reads smoothly and that the ideas are presented with good organization.
3. Get feedback
Mentors, counselors, and teachers can help you identify areas of your essay to improve.
The Common App and UC App will open soon in August, so it is better to begin on your applications early! Additional college essay tips can be found here in this article or read here.
