[quote=Anonymous]The advice I got for my kid with mental health struggles is make the big essay about a passion, an experience, an interest - something positive that you are excited about and helps the college get to know something unique about you. You do need to address the mental health issue but you can do it in the "what else do you want to tell us" essay or the "why I transferred schools" essay. And the content should be: I struggled, I got treatment and am now thriving with these things in place/or I learned more about what I need to be healthy. So showing that the issue has been addressed and that the kid is now ready for college. [/quote]
