Hi, so for one of the application essays for the University of Califonia school system asks for you to describe your greatest talent or skill. I plan to talk about drawing and I’m debating whether to include talking about using it as a strategy to pay for college. Is this a good idea? Should I stray away from discussing college payments in all my essays?
Yes, you should probably avoid it - unless perhaps you already have been hired to draw somewhere, you can talk about having a part time job.
I agree with the above and would not use the essay to discuss paying for college.
I would not talk about it in that light. If you make money drawing it might fit in somehow, but don’t talk about how it fits into paying for college.
