If you need to write an essay for your college admission, please refer to some of the resources below.  Also, have a parent, teacher or your counselor proof-read your essay and don't be afraid to ask for help.  How can your essay stand out from others?

Of all the parts to a college application, the essay portion is probably the most time consuming, and it can be the most powerful portion of the application as well.  You have an opportunity to show a side of you that is not otherwise seen in the application. 

No matter the prompt, the essay should be about YOU!

***You can find out what a college/college application requires on their admission website, but some times you won't know all the writing required (if any) until you start the application.***
