The worst thing you could do is use a template for your college essays. These days, your essay needs to read like an original piece of writing like an inauguration address.

I suggest you watch some youtube videos made by admits who share their essays so you better understand that each essay is an expression of using your own voice, words, stories, and perspective.

There is no formula for writing an admission essay that is universally accepted because let's face it, you are a completely unique person, even different from your own family members, relatives, friends, neighbors, classmates, teachers.

My essay would never work for you. And yours would never work for me.

Good luck.
