Application Essay Solving a Problem (Free Example)

This is a sample application essay about solving a problem. When I was a child, I was on the junior basketball team at my middle school. I was a good player, not a great player, but I loved the sport and it meant everything to me. I’d play at school, before school, during practices, and then at home after I finished my homework. As I stated, as a good player on the team, there were many others better than me, taller than me, faster than me, more talented and more consistent than me. But still, I was good and I Continue Reading...

Admissions Essay for Christian University (Free Example)

This is a sample College Admissions Essay for a student trying to be accepted to a Christian University. I’ve always referred to my relationship with God as being like “having a third parent.” My Christian friends generally nod in agreement, whenever they’ve heard me say this. Non-Christian friends generally look at me quizzically when they hear this, as if they don’t quite understand what I mean. And it is this difference, this distinction that essentially summarizes why I want to go to a Christian university. My relationship with God is not something that I take lightly. It is an active Continue Reading...

This is a sample admissions essay for a student trying to be admitted to an MBA program at a college of their choice. I knew what I wanted to be from the time I was six, and it never changed—not for the next 18 years. I was going to be a fashion designer. I spent the years of my youth taking art classes, going to the Fashion Institute at the Metropolitan Museum, looking at fashion magazines, red carpet events, and sketching, sketching, sketching. I learned how to sew both by hand and by machine, and studied the structure of fine Continue Reading...

Admissions Essay Overcoming a Struggle (Free Example)

One of my favorite expressions is “there is no strength, where there is no struggle.” This summarizes the bulk of my life and all that I had to overcome in order to succeed. The bulk of my struggle came from the fact that my parents were never around. I was the eldest of two, with three years separating me from my little brother. My memories of my father are few: my mother said that he had a rough childhood, something that set him up for addiction later in life. He spent the early years of my childhood in and out Continue Reading...

I’ve had the honor of studying for the last four years in an all girls Catholic preparatory high school in America, a first world nation. The experience of my education in the last few years has been perfect in many ways: I’ve received a world class education in an environment that prioritizes the female experience. The teachers I had have been intellectually brilliant and appropriately demanding of us and I’ve had to learn more than I thought I would be able to Continue Reading...

Personal Statement in Pharmaceutical Sciences (Example)

This is a personal statement for a student trying to be admitted to a Pharmaceutical Sciences program.

He had an array of symptoms, some which were specific to mania, others to depression, and still others to Alzheimer’s. It took several tries for his doctor to get his Continue Reading...
