Make a Memorable Impression with Your Application Essay!
Imagine your essay as a photograph. Now picture a college admissions officer holding your photograph next to two other photos. The problem is, they only have room for one more acceptance.The first photo was taken at a professional studio and shows a well-dressed student candidate neatly sitting on a chair, with a soothing background behind him…very nice.
The second photo shows a candidate also sitting, only it’s an out-of-focus, crumbled-up shot taken from a mobile phone.
The third photograph is a shot of you holding a paint brush in your hand, while painting your living room wall. You’re wearing a baseball cap and a long flannel shirt. You’re completely covered with paint, but smiling and appear to be having fun. It’s not a professional photo, but the quality is still fine.
Which photo do you believe left the most memorable impression?
If you guessed number three, you are correct. If this photo were an essay, it would have offered the admissions committee some helpful and revealing information about YOU. You seem to be a productive individual carrying out a worthwhile task. Maybe not the world’s best painter, but able to maintain a healthy and positive attitude.
