<p>When I viewed the common app a couple of days ago there was a place to submit a "why grinnell" essay on the supplement. When I logged on today, the "why grinnell" essay prompt was gone and the only essay on the supplement was the one about advice. Has anyone else had this problem? How do I attach my essay? Why did the supplement change? </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I believe that was last years essay. The only one that has been there this year as far as I know is the “Advice” essay.</p>
<p>I never saw a “Why Grinnell” essay and I first saw their supplement a couple of months ago. You sure you didn’t register last year as a junior just to see what it was all about and got last year’s and this year’s supplements mixed up?</p>
<p>what’s the essay this year? Just curious – my son really liked the “create a new mascot” for the school when he applied.</p>
<p>^ “What was the most memorable advice, good or bad, you have ever received? Did you follow it? What happened? (approximately 250 words)”</p>
<p>Ooh I like that new topic! I guess the mascot question was more creative but it was HARD. For me, anyway. /random comment/</p>
<p>In my opinion, the advice essay of this year is not very creative.</p>
