<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Are the haas undergraduate essays the same each year? How many essays are there? Can anyone give insights to the type of questions? </p>
<p>Thank you so much!</p>
<p>just go to the website and look at the most recent app…</p>
<p>the essays aren’t “the same” but they basically ask the same things:
first one will be about choosing one of haas’ 4 defining principles and relating it to your life and your story and the 2nd one will be something creative or overcoming something, etc etc</p>
<p>could you link me to the most recent app? I’m having a hard time finding it 
also, what are the word limits?</p>
<p>500 words a pop</p>
<p>Anyone have previous application prompts? :(</p>
<p>There are always two prompts:</p>
<p>1) Culture: “What does [Haas defining principle] mean to you?” There are four defining principles that the committee chooses from: Students Always, Beyond Yourself, Confidence without Attitude and Question the Status Quo.</p>
<p>2) Creative: “Describe yourself using one adjective.” “Turn to page ??? of your autobiography. What does it say?” Very similar to application prompts from University of Chicago.</p>
