<p>Ok I was filling out my lehigh application, and I finally am at the essay section. The application has 5 topics you can choose between</p>
<p>A. What (who) is your favorite color/word/celebrity and why?
B. Step out the front door of your home and tell us what you would change about what you see
C. In choosing a college, you are making one of the biggest decisions of your life. Tell us what you have learned about yourself or other people in the process.
D. What specific form of discrimination concerns you?
E. In reading your file, we try to get to know you as much as possible through what you submit to us. Please provide a statement in any topical area that will increase our understanding of your unique experiences. </p>
<p>I have written a personal statement that I can send to every college I am applying to, because all of them for the 500 word essay are requiring a personal statement. </p>
<p>My question was should I submit my personal statement (which is very strong) to Lehigh, or should I write using one of their other four prompts. Will it increase my chances any if i submit one of the other four essays expressing an interest in their topics. Or would it seem like a cop-out/being lazy/not wanting to write another essay if i submitted prompt "E" my personal statement. I was just wondering this becuase if I don't need to write this essay, I could focus my attention on the other 5 essays I have to write and make them stronger. Also, Lehigh is a slight reach for me.</p>
<p>Let me know...</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
