This is a great way to get started on your statement of purpose or get to work on a personal essay.

Describe the world you are from — your family, your community, your school, your culture — and describe how your world has influenced your goals and dreams.

Your essay should be a minimum of 250 and a maximum of 1,000 words. Essays must be emailed by 2:00pm. Winners will be announced.

We recommend participating in our Statement of Purpose, Personal Statement Virtual Seminar before submitting your entry.
