<p>I'm looking at my transfer essays and I feel like they are too similar and I'd like to make some last minute changes to them. I've googled about the prompts and there are certainly many who agree that the two prompts ask for similar things. Here are the prompts:</p>
<p>1) As Georgetown is a diverse community, the Admissions Committee would like to know more about you in your own words. Please submit a brief essay, either personal or creative, which you feel best describes you. If transferring from a four-year institution, please include your reasons for transferring.</p>
<p>2) Describe the factors that have influenced your interest in studying business.</p>
<p>In essay one, I spent a little under 200 of the 500 words telling a brief story about how I feel like I'm business minded and how I come to love business etc. The remaining 300 words are essentially "Why Georgetown?" and are specific to my goals in business.</p>
<p>I'm pretty confident about essay two. I feel like this was more straight forward.</p>
<p>Should the first part of my essay one not be there? I feel like it describes who I am. It's tough to transition from "Who I am?" to "Why Georgetown?" in any aspect other than academics I feel like, because I want to transfer to Georgetown for academic reasons.</p>
<p>What do you think? </p>
