<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>So I am doing the app for Bates, and I am not sure what to write for the “why bates?” essay. </p>
<p>Any tips?</p>

<p>What induced you to fill out the app? Something must have appealed to you.
Read the guidebooks -- Fiske is pretty good -- and take note of the things you like in the writeups.
Did you visit? If so, what did you like?
Did you interview? Ditto.
