8. Be yourself!
Most importantly, be honest and be yourself! Admissions officers want to accept students who will be successful at their school and contribute to its environment. They want to recruit students from backgrounds who will diversify their student body and if you sound like their type of candidate, then it will be an advantageous situation for both you and the college!
9. Review your final version carefully.
When you have completed the final version of your essay, read it carefully and ask:
Is there a strong introduction that sets the stage for a memorable essay?
Is the topic sentence of each paragraph clear and do the rest of the sentences
in the paragraph support the topic sentence?
Are all of my thoughts connected in a logical fashion?
Is the essay focused and cohesive?
Does my unique voice come through; does the essay sound like me?
Is the grammar correct?
Have I done a final "spell check" on a computer?
Have I re-read the final version carefully to be sure the "spell check" didn’t
substitute any incorrect words?
As a final check, give your essay to an English teacher or someone with a background in grammar and spelling to make sure that you haven't made any avoidable mistakes.
And, be sure to keep a printed copy of your final version.
