Are Penn State essays the same as coalition or are essays not required at all. I couldn’t find any info on their site nor does it say they aren’t required. Thanks!
Search “Penn State applying on the web worksheet” – it has all prompts and whatnot.
The first is just a list of your ECs and leadership positions and such. The second is a personal statement, which is optional. You could very well reuse another college’s (or the Common App’s) essay for this.
PSU application has a personal statement which is pretty short. Actual essays and recommendations are not considered at all. With 50k plus applicants, they cannot read everyone’s essays.
