We take every aspect of your personal profile into consideration when calculating your admissions chances.
At Le Moyne College, we value the entrepreneurial mindset and celebrate what our students achieve outside of the classroom. If you have project, business plan, or other venture that captures the spirit of learning by doing, feel free to describe it below.
Please note that certain criminal conduct may prohibit you from obtaining campus housing, and applicants who are currently incarcerated are not eligible for state financial aid. Additionally, some criminal and non-criminal conduct may render you ineligible for professional licensure, and/or prohibit you from becoming employed in certain professional fields. If you have any questions, please contact admission@lemoyne.edu.
Have you been convicted of a misdemeanor, felony, or other crime?
If so, please explain:
Have you ever been found responsible for a disciplinary violation at an educational institution you have attended from 9th grade (or the international equivalent) forward, whether related to academic misconduct or behavioral misconduct, that resulted in your probation, suspension, removal, dismissal or expulsion from the institution?
If so, please explain:
This is your chance to give us a better idea of who you are and what is truly important to you. Your submission should be at least 250 words in length.
Note: Your personal statement/essay is not required to submit your application. You can submit your statement/essay at any time to admission@lemoyne.edu or by uploading it later (you will receive instructions via email upon submitting your application.)
Please select one of the options below and follow the appropriate instructions:
Submit a copy of a paper that you‘ve written for class in the past year. Your paper should include the grade and the teacher comments.
Write about a topic of your choice (i.e. an important person or event that has impacted your life; a story about your background, identity, talent; a challenge in your life and how you have overcome it, etc.).
Discuss how an education at Le Moyne College will help you achieve your long-term goals.
The essay demonstrates your ability to write clearly and concisely on a selected topic and helps you distinguish yourself in your own voice. What do you want the readers of your application to know about you apart from courses, grades, and test scores? Choose the option that best helps you answer that question and write an essay of no more than 650 words, using the prompt to inspire and structure your response. Remember: 650 words is your limit, not your goal. Use the full range if you need it, but don‘t feel obligated to do so.
Some students have a background, identity, interest, or talent that is so meaningful they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story.
The lessons we take from obstacles we encounter can be fundamental to later success. Recount a time when you faced a challenge, setback, or failure. How did it affect you, and what did you learn from the experience?
Reflect on a time when you questioned or challenged a belief or idea. What prompted your thinking? What was the outcome?
Reflect on something that someone has done for you that has made you happy or thankful in a surprising way. How has this gratitude affected or motivated you?
Discuss an accomplishment, event, or realization that sparked a period of personal growth and a new understanding of yourself or others.
Describe a topic, idea, or concept you find so engaging that it makes you lose all track of time. Why does it captivate you? What or who do you turn to when you want to learn more?
Share an essay on any topic of your choice. It can be one you‘ve already written, one that responds to a different prompt, or one of your own design.
