Undergraduate / Undergraduate Application - Why essay for Duke Trinity College of Arts and Sciences [5]
Hi:) I really want to be a member in Duke community and this essay is for my Early Decision this year. Please feel free to give me suggestions and comments!
The word limit is 150, but this draft is 168 now... Hopefully someone will help me with it :)
Really appreciate your help!!!
If you are applying to the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences as a first year applicant, please discuss why you consider Duke a good match for you. Is there something particular about Duke that attracts you? (Please limit your response to no more than 150 words.)
Duke's Trinity College attracts me for its interdisciplinary academics, strong sense of community, and peaceful setting. For instance, the Focus Program offers the opportunity to explore my various academic interests from an interdisciplinary perspective. Many academic realms can never be understood independently, such as economics and sociology, leadership and ethics. This interdisciplinary view will give me new academic stimulations in interpreting economics and foster my various academic interests.
Moreover, I am a gregarious person in nature and I enjoy joining the community through supporting Blue Devils sports teams, especially the basketball teams. Living with others in tents for weeks to get tickets and sharing the pursuit for success, I can make good relationships with friends and maintain them after graduation, which would be the most worthwhile part for me.
Lastly, I have lived in a busy city my whole life. Having a walk with friends in the Duke Forests and reading books under a tree in the Duke Gardens, I can enjoy a peaceful new experience at Duke.
