Personal Essay Topics
For tomorrow, begin writing on three different topics. For example, you can choose numbers 2, 4 and 5, OR you can answer number 2 in three different ways.
Write at least one paragraph for each topic, outlining what you would write in that essay. Tomorrow you will work individually with me to choose which one you will complete.
Write 300-500 words on one of the following topics:
1. Evaluate a significant experience, achievement, risk you have taken,
or ethical dilemma you have faced and its impact on you.
2. Discuss some issue of personal, local, national, or international
concern and its importance to you.
3. Indicate a person who has had a significant influence on you, and
describe that influence.
4. Describe a character in fiction, a historical figure, or a creative
work (as in art, music, science, etc.) that has had an influence on
you, and explain that influence.
5. A range of academic interests, personal perspectives, and life
experiences adds much to the educational mix. Given your personal
background, describe an experience that illustrates what you would
bring to the diversity in a college community, or an encounter that
demonstrated the importance of diversity to you.
6. Topic of your choice.
