<p>I'm sure there is already a topic that addresses this, but should I title my essays? Common app, supplements, all of it. DO admissions counselors recommend adding titles?</p>
<p>I recommend against titling essays. It counts against your word limit, and often is just awkward, irrelevant, or a summary of what the essay is going to be about. However, if you can think of a really unique title that doesn’t give spoilers about the essay and, in fact, adds to the essay, then by all means, include it.</p>
