We are starting the year with personal narratives. If done correctly, you should be able to use or adapt your narrative as the essay for your college applications.
As we work on your narratives, and later as we work on application coaching, use the information in this folder to help you: Essays and Applications 18-19.
There are several useful links on the right side of this page that you may want to consult as you work on your essays and your applications. I would also recommend taking a look at these articles as you brainstorm and write:
The Best and Worst Topics for a College Application Essay
How to Come Up with Great College Essay Ideas
5 College Application Essay Topics That Always Work
Stuck on the Essay? Try Writing a Letter to an Imaginary Roommate
Good luck! Remember that your personal narrative is due on Monday, September 24th, and that you are required to show proof of at least one completed college application by Wednesday, October 31st.
