“The primary quality the college looks for is aNov 24 2013Political Science
The primary quality the college looks for is a willingness to engage in the rich academic and social life it has to offer.

Think of the time you changed your mind on a strongly-held opinion or prejudice because a personal experience; a writer who inspired you; or a personal struggle that made you more empathetic to the needs of others. In short, emphasis not your present brilliance, but your commitment to engage.
