<p>does UOP have a personal statement or required essay for freshman applicants? I know dental applicants do, but any other major has an essay? </p>
<p>im applying to engineering and I read on their website that they do not "require one" but it says submit a brief essay of 500 words on a topic of our choice or the one they gave us.... </p>
<p>even if this essay is required, how do we submit it???</p>
<p>I am applying through common app and I don't see a location for it...? I don't know cuz I also didn't choose the "central identity" prompt for the CA which they apparently want you to pick....</p>
