"Why Us" ends up being a very manageable prompt once you break it down to the 4 section template that I mentioned - this can easily be attributed to shorter essays as well as longer ones! Hope this video helped, and let me know if you have any video suggestions!
I literally accidentally submitted my UChicago application WITHOUT WRITING MY ESSAY. I completely forgot about the essay potion and just submitted it, and early action came in today and I just knew they were going to reject me, but guess what? They freaking deferred me! I’m definitely doing my essay now and I’m going to make sure it’s strong since they are giving me this second chance!
I just want to say Thank you so much, I was stressing about writing some essays and your templates and transitions examples helped me so much, I just finished my essay for the University of Wisconsin Madison and others and just because of your video, I can’t stress this enough THANK YOU once again 🙏🏻 ❤️ Hope you are doing well in UChicago❤️
Great question! I write almost everything in creative writing style within a personal narrative format. It's totally up to you - I think that you be creative but still give them practical points. :)
Hi, I am applying for UChicago, and do have a quick question. When writing the "why UChicago" essay, is it better to format it in splits paragraph or one full length due to the word count that is suggested? Also, do they take points away if you do not stay within the word count; 250-500, or do they not penalize you whether if you stay on the word count or go over?
Most prob don’t want it to be over as they have to read and review a lot of essays. They’ll probably think wow this person can’t understand simple rules, so I’d say don’t. If you want to be completely sure talk with so of there reps, I’m sure they could answer that for you
Thank you so much for keeping up with all of my videos! I would recommend reading through for repetition/redundancies and cutting some lines out. It's always hard to identify repetition in a college essay, especially through good writing, but if you can do that and cut out lines, that would be great. A longer essay may detract from the story that you're trying to tell given how many essays the admissions board's going to read already. Good luck!
hello my college application deadline is 11/01/23 please have mercy on me and review my essay for me . I am from a poor background please how can I contact you and send my activities lists for you for review
