Applicant's Advice
"Don't be afraid to take risks with essays; show personality through your writing style, not by copying online examples. Include activities that mean a lot to you personally, not just impressive ones. Organize activities by themes to identify your narrative. Don't use big corporation college counselors—talk to people you trust like friends and teachers. Do genuine self-reflection to discover who you are. Initiative and genuine effort in your community stand out. You don't need a huge STEM spike (RSI, ISEF) to get into top schools; just be yourself."
