Writing the Successful College Essay 2017: Tips for Success



  • Write about something that's important to you. It could be an experience, a person, a book – anything that has had an impact on your life.

  • Be yourself. Take a moment to think about what interests you, what you love to talk about, what makes you sit up and take notice if it's mentioned in class or on TV. Then write about it. One of the biggest mistakes students make is "writing what they think others want to hear, rather than about an issue, event, or person that really had significance for them," says an admission and financial aid officiat at a New York college. An essay like that is not just boring to write, it's boring to read.

  • Start early and write several drafts .  Set it aside for a few days and read it again. Put yourself in the shoes of an admissions officer: Is the essay interesting? Do the ideas flow logically? Does it reveal something about the applicant? Is it written in the applicant’s own voice?

  • Be cautious in your use of humor. You never know how someone you don't know is going to respond to you, especially if you offer something humorous. Humor is always in the eye of the beholder. Be funny only if you think you have to. Then think again.

  • Develop three essay parts
  1. Introduction: One paragraph that introduces your essay 2017.
  2. Body: Several paragraphs explaining the main idea with examples.
  3. Conclusion: One paragraph that summarizes and ends the essay 2017.
