Aspiring Political Communications Major - Essay Help

Hello!

I’m a current high school senior applying ED to GWU this fall. I’m hoping to pursue a major in Political Communications.

I’ve already written my Common App essay as well as the general writing supplement for GWU, but I’m stuck on the supplement for my major. The prompt is “If you could be any one person who has been active in politics, who would you choose to be and why?”

I would love any tips on how to approach this prompt in a way that will make me stand out as well as any helpful guidelines for the admissions process as a whole.

Thanks!
