The word Limit is 300 words. I have already reached 307.
I don't like the first sentence at all! Please help changing that and make any changes necessary elsewhere.

Prompt:Given your interests, values, and goals, explain why Oberlin College will help you grow (as a student and a person) during your undergraduate years. (300 Words)

I had to be very careful choosing a college where I would be spending my next four years. I had to made sure that I end up in a college not so big and not that small either, that has a very good community and has the option of research. I also found out I need to be in a liberal arts college because of the low student-faculty ratio. Amazingly I found out Oberlin; a place where I will be greeted wholeheartedly and will have endless opportunities to pursue my interests.

In Oberlin I can accomplish my research interests in Physics and Astronomy which will enhance my academic and scientific skills that is needed to be a successful researcher. I can also double major in Physics and Astronomy and that is a huge opportunity for me. Other than that I also have the opportunity to go to an Engineering school through the Engineering Program. I can also learn the piano and the guitar at Oberlin which has been my fascination for many years being confident that I will get the best music education from the conservatory. Other than that I can get into many clubs such as Astronomy, Coed Soccer, Cycling and Anime club. In Oberlin I can also engage myself in community service, which I have been doing for a long time here, through many programs available at the Bonner Center, I will have ample opportunity to show my leadership and volunteer skills.

At last what I can say is that at Oberlin I will not only be pursuing my intended major but also enjoying the college life through many activities available. It's the place where I will be able to thrive not only in academics but also I will be able to grow into a better human being by getting involved in the Oberlin community.

I had to made sure

I had to make sure / I have to make sure

I had to made sure that I end up in a college not so big and not that small either, that has a very good community and has the option of research. I also found out I need to be in a liberal arts college because of the low student-faculty ratio.

Why you want a medium size college? what type community you look for? Also, what do you mean by "I also found out I need to be in a liberal arts college because of the low student-faculty ratio"????

They ask you;

Prompt: Given your interests, values, and goals, explain why Oberlin College will help you grow (as a student and a person) during your undergraduate years. (300 Words)

So you need to say why and how Oberlin answers your above concerns. It's not good enough to make statements without reasoning.

Okay so I managed to answer what you told. It's now 338 words and I have to keep it in 300 words. That's the main concern! Please give it a look...

I suggest;
I want my college life to make a meaningful contribution to my future as well as the most enjoyable time in my life. Therefore my choice is a medium sized college that offers options of my research interests. This is why I find Oberlin a perfect fit for me.

I also found out I need to be in a liberal arts college because of the low student-faculty ratio as that would help me in asking about things more often.

Oberlin's low student- faculty ratio is a feature that attracts me that would enhance my opportunities to be actively involved with both academic and social engagements.

so should the first para be like this:

I want my college life to make a meaningful contribution to my future as well as the most enjoyable time in my life. Therefore my choice is a medium sized college that offers options of my research interests. Oberlin's low student- faculty ratio is a feature that attracts me that would enhance my opportunities to be actively involved with both academic and social engagements.
