Undergraduate / Villanova - "one outfit completely altered my own esteem like no other" [4]
Xavier, this essay does not really provide a thought provoking lesson that would make an impression on the admissions officers reading it. You have shown that you are taking the theme of the prompt quite lightly and did not really give great thought to the best way that you can answer the essay. The lesson that you learned from that day is shallow and not life changing. There is nothing in your response that shows how this event in your life has taught you something that you believe will help you become an asset to the university community should you become a student there. Try to strive for a deeper story and lesson that will truly make a mark upon the admissions officer and have him going "I should recommend this student, he may be an asset to the community". Unfortunately, a fashion statement story, unless used for applying to a fashion school, is not really the kind of material that can work to your benefit in such a religious university.
