Scholarly attributes

College Essays
1

<p>I have an essay for the UIC honors college. Basically the question is "what scholarly attributes do you bring to the community of learners, (faculty and students) in all disiplines.</p>

<p>I'm really stuck on how to structure the essay</p>

<p>any input is appreciated</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>well i can offhand think of the following 'scholarly' attributes: diligent, creative, analytical, patient, quick-witted etc. See if any of them apply to you, think of some examples to show why, write the essay. But I agree it's a rotten topic- very difficult to answer such a question without sounding boring.</p>

<p>Hi, I was googling scholarly attributes for this same UIC Honors College Application and stumbled upon this site. I wrote about academic humility, vision/goals and perserverance to obtain them, curiosity and the courage to explore, multiple perspectives, and experience/success in AP college prep classes and how this relates to my definition of success (success is not a grade but actual intellectual growth and preparation for life/college)
you probably already wrote your essay and im probably just procrastinating
hope this helps anyways.

<p>They make you write an essay to get into the Honors college now? Back in my day, all you have to do was to fill out a postcard, and as long as your high school rank was in the top 15% and ACT>28, you were in.</p>

<p>My day was less than 5 years ago. They must have just changed requirements.</p>
