<p>So I'm graduating class of 2015. I was wondering if there's a way to write college supplemental essays early so I can be less stressed out when applying to colleges comes around. What I'm asking is, do any of these colleges have very similar supplemental essays from year to year?
For the most part, i'm applying to science programs in these following schools:
-UMich Ann Arbor
-USCali
-UC Berkeley
-UCLA
-UNC Chapel Hill
-Notre Dame
-Colorado College
-UVermont
-UCSD
-Emory
-NYU
-Boston University
-UDenver
-Northeastern
-Wake forst
-Tufts
-UVirginia</p>
<p>All UC’s have the same prompts, and they’re the same every year. Go to the University of California website to find it. Just be sure not be specific about a certain school because all the UC’s are under the same application.
I believe one of them is “Describe your world”. I forget the other prompt. </p>
<p>Most of the other schools are under the Common Application, so you can use the same essay for those schools. Go to the Common App website to see if they have the possible prompts for the 2014-2015 year. The choices usually don’t change significantly. </p>
<p>Generally, schools have a “Describe an extra curricular activity you are passionate about” prompt. Check each college admissions website to find out if they’ve released their prompts yet. </p>
<p>Hopefully this helps! Let me know if you have any questions! </p>
<p>@romeonachos Thanks, this helps a lot! One question about the common app essay. I’ve already written a rough draft on it along the lines of “describe an event in your life and how it has affected you”. Do you think this will be applicable for next years applications?</p>
<p>They already released the UVa supplement questions.</p>
<p>The Common App prompts are the same as last year’s.</p>
<p>Many schools have released the supplement prompts if you go digging through their admissions pages. I have already started to accumulate and write all of my supplements.</p>
<p>@AlbertCollege They almost always have that prompt. Just double check your essay addresses all the parts of that prompt! </p>
<p>CollegeEssayOrganizer.com has a consolidated list that notifies you when the colleges you pick update the prompts for the 2014-2015 season. It’s not perfect, but it helps.</p>
