Prompt:In one paragraph, please describe your specific interest in attending IWU.
no word limit, but should be only one paragraph.

Thanks ahead of time for helping me if you can. :D
When I browsed the Academic Major and Programs page of IWU web-site, I thought God they offer the most choices for students among all those fine Liberal arts colleges, ranging from Accounting to Piano in Music. I am a person with multiple interests. I love Math and Writing and foreign languages and have beening playing the Piano for over 13 years. I've always wanted to become a well-rounded student. In this regard, I can undoubtedly reach my full potential with professors' guidance and personal attention in IWU, a place where versatility is encouraged. Also, the May Term program attracted my attention the first time I read about it. It gives students the chance to explore and exercise, to muse and meditate, to have a taste of what life is really like and to feel things close to us by heart. It can turn immature students into seasoned scholars and helpful citizens. Thus I am eager to get involved in all these kinds of practice which combines academic knowledge, life experience and spiritual inspiration. The third thing I love about IWU is the attention to sports. Doing sports makes me feel lively and fiery and I always find ways to do exercises. When I found that the IWU Titans ranked seventh among all colleges and universities in number of athletes who honored Academic All-America and IWU sports teams hold top ranking positions nationally I knew that IWU is the place where I can feel my burning youth.

You don't have to include God, it sounds awkward. You could say, I was amazed by the number/variety of courses...

I love Math, and Writing, and foreign languages (specify if you want to, its better to) and have beening playing the Piano for over 13 years. I've always wanted to become a well-rounded student .

I suggest you get rid of that line as its cliche. Everyone wants to be a well-rounded student, right??

the May Term program attracted (grasped) my attention

The third thing I love about IWU is the attention to sports. Doing sports makes me feel lively and fiery and I always find ways to do exercises.

Start off with finally instead of third. Attention sounds awkward, use dedication.
Doing sports makes everyone feel lively - try something else!

When I found that the IWU Titans ranked seventh among all colleges and universities in the number of athletes who honored Academic All-America and IWU sports teams hold top ranking positions nationally I knew that IWU is the place where I can feel my burning youth.Sounds awkward.

Good Luck!
