Introduction to the Personal Essay

Frequently the college application essay or personal essay causes applicants a great deal of anxiety. Instead of thinking of the essay as some kind of big hurdle

to get over, think of it as the one place on the application form where you can
really express yourself and allow the admissions officers to get a glimpse of who you really are.

The guide is divided into four basic parts, each part is sub-divided into easy-to-following sections. Believe it or not, writing a meaningful personal
college application essay can be a rewarding experience.
