University of Michigan Supplemental Essay Help

Hi, so this is the prompt for the UMich Essay
Everyone belongs to many different communities and/or groups defined by (among other things) shared geography, religion, ethnicity, income, cuisine, interest, race, ideology, or intellectual heritage. Choose one of the communities to which you belong, and describe that community and your place within it.

I’m having difficulty thinking of a “community” i’m in
My one friend said that when she thinks of me she automatically thinks of how I always stand up for womens rights and don’t take peoples sexist comments
So could writing about how i’m part of the feminist be applicable to this?

Yup! That would work. But the key thing is to make your essay your own “story.” Relate your own experiences and weave your thoughts into it. Pour your heart out. This is what makes you stand out from other applicants :slight_smile: Good luck!
