Syracuse is one of my top choices, and I really don’t have the best grades, so the supplements are kind of important to me (even though I know I can’t compensate for what I don’t have)
The first question is “Who or what influenced you to apply to Syracuse University?”
and this was what I wrote:
My mom was the one who influenced me to apply to Syracuse University. She attended the university to receive a degree in art. When she talked about attending Syracuse, she spoke of it very highly. each of our family members had their own Syracuse attire, and we would watch the Syracuse basketball and football teams compete on television. One winter break, we went there on a family trip to see the campus. She showed us around the art buildings, we walked around the campus and then went to a restaurant near campus that she said she would always go to. I was young then, but looking back on my experiences with Syracuse, the unity that I witnessed on television and the insight into traditions that my mom showed me are aspects that I would love to have in a school, which is why Syracuse is one of my top choices.
and the second question is “Who is the person you dream of becoming and how do you believe Syracuse University can help you achieve this?”, but I have NO idea what to write for that.
I’m so stressed because I want these essays to be well written and show who I really am…
it would mean so much if you guys could edit these or suggest changes/advice before I send my app in.
