About
This course introduces you to the purpose and power of the college essay. You will learn what admissions officers hope to understand about you, why your voice matters more than perfection, and how your stories and values help you stand out. Through short guided writing exercises, you will begin exploring meaningful moments, practicing authentic expression, and discovering the parts of yourself that numbers cannot show. By the end, you will understand how your essay becomes your chance to speak for yourself and share the truth of who you are in a thoughtful, confident, and memorable way.
