<p>Can you use foul language in a college admissions essay?
Has anyone done it?</p>
<p>I don't recommend it. To me, the use of such language shows a lack of concern for precision, a willingness to rely on overused expressions. Find your own, precise words!</p>
<p>ADad is right. The exception is if there's a really good reason to use it to stay true to a story or a quotation</p>
