JUMP-STARTING YOUR U.S. UNIVERSITY SUPPLEMENTAL ESSAYS Date/Time: TBD Location: ONLINE. Confused about what topics to write about? Wondering how to best demonstrate your passions? Unsure of how to structure your essay in a way that will help you stand out? Where should you begin and how should your essay your end? Let’s not underestimate the power of university application supplements. Supplements are each university’s unique application questions, enabling you to showcase who you are. There will be many essays to write, in addition to your main Personal Statement. While a few universities have short supplements, most have rather extensive supplements. Some require several shorter essays, while others require one long essay and possibly a couple of shorter ones. Some simply ask why you’re applying to their university; your answer should not be anything but simple! There are universities which have an uncommon approach; your response can not be common. Some give the option of uploading a résumé or a graded paper from school. Your supplements, more than anything, have to answer the question asked – with the exception of those rare prompts that are looking for creativity and want the student to demonstrate that they can think outside of the box. Our workshops will tackle the many types of essays and questions students will encounter in the process of applying to university. Discussion will include short answer tips and common mistakes to avoid. We take the confusion out of supplements!
Workshops are limited to Select College Admissions students.
