<p>I am planning on applying as a Transfer for Fall 2014, and I am stuck on my 'community' essay.</p>
<p>I know there are probably a lot of people writing on this topic, but I was thinking about writing about my ethnicity, as opposed to a club/organization I belong to. I didn't do much volunteering in high school, and now I have even less time to do that.</p>
<p>Do you guys think it would be a good idea to write about my "journey"?</p>
<p>A community doesn’t have to be something official, so an ethnic/racial background or community would work just fine. As far as a “journey,” goes, just make sure you can write about it briefly, as in keeping it close to the word limit.</p>
<p>If you write about something big like a community centered around a common ethnic background, I’d make sure to include some specific experience</p>
<p>I’d say it depends on how big of an impact your ethnicity actually has on you. If you really feel like there is a special something to write about then go ahead and try a rough draft. </p>
<p>I don’t know much about what other kids have written on their essays. but i do have a few ideas about what i wanted to write about. what do you mean when you say “journey”? do you mean how your ethnicity shaped your life? expound, brah.</p>
<p>my answer to that question was sort of abstract but did answer the question.</p>
