Undergraduate / University of Wisconsin essay help - technically I am transferring [6]
Hi so I am applying to University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. A little late but I graduated early and technically I am transferring. Unfortunately I don't have enough credits to be considered a transfer and I want to get in this Fall.
My question is, how important are both of the essays for the Milwaukee campus? I realize that I will need a while to plan and write them. The admission office said it takes about a month to decide whether I am accepted or not. So with things the way they are I don't think I will have enough time to write the essays properly. I also heard the Milwaukee campus is somewhat easier to get into than other Wisconsin campuses so I am just wondering if it is at all possible to get accepted without it...
The questions are:
#1 The University values an educational environment that provides all members of the campus community with opportunities to grow and develop intellectually, personally, culturally and socially. In order to give us a more complete picture of you as an individual, please tell us about the particular life experiences, perspectives, talents, commitments and/or interests you will bring to our campus. In other words, how will your presence enrich our community?
#2 If there is additional information you would like us to consider in reviewing your application, please share this with us as well. This is your opportunity to tell us things about yourself that have not been asked elsewhere if you believe they will help us become acquainted with you in ways different from courses, grades, and test scores.
By the way, I'm guessing that my ACT scores would also play a role. I got a composite score of 21. Also I am hopefully getting a letter of recommendation from a teacher that I did very well with. My lowest grade in that class was a 96% with all others being 100% so I think the letter will help a lot.
