In addition to the essays from the Common Application, individual college applications usually call for several essays of
different lengths. Here are a few
typical topics to consider for your practice writing, as well as the link for the essay prompts for the Common App.
“If you could go to dinner with
anyone, living or dead, real or fictional, who would it be, why, and what would
you talk about?”
“If you knew that everything you owned was going to vanish tomorrow, but you
could save only one item, what would it be and why?”
“It is 25 years into the
future: how does your specific life fit into
the contemporary world?”
“Ask and answer the one important
question which you wish we had asked.”
“If you were to describe yourself
with a quotation, what would that quotation be and why?”
