Does the TAG application have an essay section?

Hello, I’m trying to transfer through the TAG program. However, I’m quite not ready to proceed just yet since I still have to finish filling out the TAP forms. I just want to know if there’s any lengthy writing portion on the TAG app itself so I can set aside time to write a decent one since writing/grammar is my greatest weakness as a student.

And, is a paragraph enough to explain gap years in the TAP application or do they expect an essay?

Sorry, I’m fairly new to this. I had initially planned to only apply through general application. I only found out recently that I am a TAG candidate. TY in advance.

No essay and pargraph for gap ok.

Thanks for the quick reply Ohm888.

Follow up question: If part of the reason for the gap is medical issue, should I provide details? Is it necessary or do they not care or want to be burdened by it?

Is simply saying “I was dealing with a medical issue which has since been resolved” sufficient to cover the medical part of the reason?

Yes, that’s fine. Later they will send a request for more info around January. They always do that with gaps, even if you explained in detail. You can go into more detail then.

Thank you again. You don’t know how much better I feel. Appreciate it.
