Can someone please read over my UWashington essay? I am not sure it answers the prompt.

The prompt is: “Our families and communities often define us and our individual worlds. Community might refer to your cultural group, extended family, religious group, neighborhood or school, sports team or club, co-workers, etc. Describe the world you come from and how you, as a product of it, might add to the diversity of the University of Washington.”

I have written a pretty good essay about how being both a scientist and an artist has informed the way I see the world. Unfortunately I am not sure that it really talks about community enough to be considered “on task”. Could someone please read over my essay and let me know what they think about it?

I have a really hard time boiling down the communities I am a part of into one to two sentences… To do so would feel like stereotyping. As a result I have really shied away from doing so and as a result have a more analytical essay then they might like.

Sure, I can help, feel free to PM me.

If you’re applying to the honors college, you could use it for the interdisciplinary essay. I wrote mine on how engineering and writing are skills that people usually think are opposing, but how I’ve found the skills they provide complementary.
