Spelman girls do not walk on the grass because they do not take shortcuts. I saw this note while shuffling through college blogs one afternoon. Everything about the school seemed to fit into the type of woman I would aspire to be. A school centered on the empowerment of women that holds their students to such high standards? That, in itself, had me sold. I never really considered the idea of attending a historically black college and university because growing up in a predominantly white community.
( I would like help with a few ideas and how to word my essay, I have about 200 words that I would like to add on. How can I make my essay more intriguing and longer and original)

Growing up in a predominantly white community, I was set on following the norm and applying to big state schools. The thought of attending a historically black college and university never crossed my mind. I had no intention of applying to an HBCU until my brother, an alumni of Morehouse College, encouraged me to apply to Spelman. After I decided I was interested (after research and after seeing quote) in Spelman, we decided to visit.
When I stepped on the Spelman campus, I spotted several students dressed extremely professionally. My brother, an alumni of Morehouse College warned me that the students on campus dressed business casual, or just nicely in general. I admired this because I went to a high school that required nice dressing, and I believe in dressing the part. On my first day there, I walked into a crowd of people yelling, screaming, and chanting. I tried to insert myself into the crowd to see what was happening. I finally made my way to the forefront of the lawn, where I saw the Alpha Kappa Alphas stepping and making the zweeeett sound. Just then, music started playing and everyone broke out into the swag surf. Although I was alone, the girl right next to me, gave me a welcoming smile and rested her arm around my shoulder as we swayed to the rest of the music singing along. Everyone had so much energy, and I was automatically welcomed by strangers. I could not feel any more at home, like this was home.
