Because transcripts, test scores, and awards lists provide only a partial picture of an applicant, we want to know more! Please write an original essay to give us more than the facts and figures. Feel free to focus on an experience, a philosophy, or a significant event (or invent a topic of your own). Our hope is to get to know you better. How you help us do that is up to you!

<p>Err....are you doing the Mac app or the commonapp? I did the common app and did the commonapp essay and the Why Mac? question.</p>

<p>oh, oops. i guess i got that from the mac app, but i am doing the common app. yeah, i thought that prompt seemed really similar to the common app essay prompt.</p>
