The essay is your one opportunity to share your voice with the admissions officers. So take advantage! It is important that you take the time to brainstorm and figure out what is the right message you want to share and do it. Sometimes it is best to utilize your resources to bounce ideas around, or get support reviewing your essay to ensure your message is coming through. So it is okay to have someone review your essay for errors and messaging. But it is your essay, your voice, and it should be your story. No one knows it better than you.
When you think about the value each student brings to a college your adventurous nature, or exposure to varying life experiences all add value to a college campus. Or as an admissions person, “what is this student doing that shows they are exposing themselves to their interests?” “Are they taking initiative and showing a commitment, responsibility, or holding a leadership role in something they are passionate about?” “What life experiences have they had that might invite them to try something new?”
