[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Class of 2026 Mich:  accepted OOs early with 1530, 3.9, athlete, orchestra, leadership.  I remember guidance counselor told her to redo 
 the "why Mich" essay and make it very specific to Michigan.  She researched and added specific classes, specific profs and specific programs etc. that she wanted to take, get involved with and how it aligned with her career goals.[/quote]

Same. I do feel like that's easier to do with some majors/departments than others.  But, when DC was done with the essay, it was more compelling than any other they wrote.  DC started first with how what they had done in their life lead them to Michigan, but it was too weighted towards the student and eventually shifted the focus more to Michigan and it didn't feel like any other school could be subbed out.  That was definitely not the case for some of the other "why this school" essays of the community ones.  I guess that's why DC is going Blue.[/quote]

This is the reason Michigan gives your kid 550 words to explain why Mich....is it the most in college admissions?[/quote]

The Georgetown essay is "1-2 pages"  [/quote]

LOL, Georgetown. Never change.[/quote]
