Okay, I am majorily freaking out right now. I was going to apply to U of C but then I my computer crashed and ALL of my work got deleted!!! THE HORROR! Anyways, needless to say, I missed their application deadline. (Thus, making me combust, rise from my ashes and then sob uncontrollably in a corner with a tub of ice cream.) But then a MIRACLE OCCURED! They extended my deadline to the 10th of January!!!! Now I am currently sobbing with happiness, but I only have a little bit of time to turn in their application. I need advice on this.
Question 1. How does the University of Chicago, as you know it now, satisfy your desire for a particular kind of learning, community, and future? Please address with some specificity your own wishes and how they relate to UChicago
My answer:
I do not recall my first word or my years in primary school, yet I remember the feel of wax crayons in my hands and the smell of finger paint in the stagnant air. I cannot tell you where I lived seven years ago or when I learned how to swim, but I can vividly describe the first painting I gazed at and how at that moment, I fell in love with the ambiguous concept called art. As years blended, art has always been at the forefront of my happiest moments in life. Maybe it was fate, maybe it circumstance or maybe it was something bigger than me that I began to consider art as a serious career. Whatever the case, I decided to pursue my love of the Fine Arts with fiery ambition.
Choosing the University of Chicago to possible become my home, in my ideology, is the perfect decision. Situated in a city that possesses such inimitable architecture and diverse cultures will broaden both my intellectual and more importantly, artistic horizon. At UChicago, I have the opportunity to expand and hone my skills and put my talents and knowledge into practice. For me, nothing can be compared to that thrilling experience.
Should I add more or is less more????? They did not give me a word limit and IDK what is appropriate!!! Help me!
