Hello, I’m new to the forums, and I just wanted to know where I could find the essay questions for the various universities I’m applying to. I’m applying this fall by the way. Also, I’d be very thankful to get some tips on how to start my essays, steps to take etc… cause I literally know nothing about college essays.
Which schools are you targeting? If they use the common application, the application opens August 1 but essays are posted. See link: http://blog.commonapp.org/2015/03/31/2015-2016-essay-prompts/
Start a fake account and get the essays questions of your college list out when it opens in August. It may help you narrow down your list.
Yeah, I have a few universities that are part of the common app so I’m gonna write one essay for all of them. And what do I do about the ones that aren’t part?
Look on the websites for each school that does not use the common application.
I also forgot to ask, what about personal statements? what are they? do I write something about me or i have to answer a question? I can’t find a clear answer online…
Also to conclude, for most universities I just write 1 personal statement and 1 essay right? not more?
