Admission essay excerpt
I can&#8217;t say that I have a very promising start.  I&#8217;ve been out of school for 10 years and is now a mother of three.  However, I wouldn&#8217;t want to change anything in my life, even if I have the chance, because whatever happened in the past made me persevere more.  I believe that it&#8217;s never too late to think about getting a college degree and be the first in the family to do so.  I want to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[College admissions procedures sure require you to do a lot of writing. The two biggest writing tasks associated with college admissions procedures are the admissions essay and the letter of recommendation. These are crucial because they are not just credentials, they also basically give the college admissions people an idea as to what kind of personality you might have and what your principles or idealisms are.
The only catch with this system is if you, the prospective college student, insists that you&#8217;re having grand difficulty stringing words and sentences together and if just the sight of a long paragraph scares you, [...]]]></description>

&#8220;You have just completed your 300 page autobiography. Please submit page 217&#8243;
My hands are clammy as I climbed up the stage. I was here at ___ University’s stage just twenty years ago, as a graduate accepting her diploma. I worked so hard in those four years in college. And I supported myself through student loans and TA work. I survived and got my degree. Resilience helped me through those times – it was hard to not have money in the bank, and needs and dreams that had to be fulfilled. I ploughed through; I had long decided that it was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Q:  What do you believe to be your generation&#8217;s greatest challenge?
The problems that beset our nation today are sad but familiar issues. We are at war in a foreign country. In our own land, some people have to battle hunger. At the same time, while I graduate this spring from one of the country’s best private high school, some kids my age graduate without even knowing how to read. War, poverty and illiteracy remain very real in America. Unfortunately, these problems are not new – they have been around since we became a nation.
There is one problem though that became [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not many people my age know what they want to be, much less know it even when they were young. I am different from my peers such that I knew ever since that I wanted to be an architect. It started with a box of Legos that was given to me as a gift. Since then, that box of Legos was my pastime of choice. Everything else, every gadget or toy that was given me, became accessories to my latest creations. I found it greatly satisfying to be able to make real the visions I had in my mind. These [...]]]></description>
