<p>For the essay that say to describe yourself... Is this a free topic, like the one on the Common App?
My Common App essay (topic of choice) was how the Museum of Natural History influenced me, and led me to take an anthropology course at Brown. Is this not a right fit for Georgetown's essay?
I'm really concerned, because Georgetown is probably my #1 school now.</p>
<p>one_voice....yes, the describe yourself essay is a rather open-ended personal statement. it sounds like your common app essay should work for the gtown app as well, as it tells something about you as a person/student. good luck!</p>
<p>Thank you very much. I appreciate your help.</p>
<p>i did use my common app essay</p>
<p>i used my common app essay too (which was actually my personal statement for ND)</p>
<p>me too RunRinCT...I tried to reuse my essays as much as possible...I'm not a big fan of writing.</p>
<p>haha yeah i'm still procrastinating on one of my UVA ones which, unfortunately, is too specific to be adapted from any of my others</p>
