Van Cortlandt Library is holding an educational event on Wednesday, July 15, at 5 p.m. EST in conjunction with CollegeWise for potential college applicants to learn more about college essays.
A library spokesperson said many great kids write average (or even bad) college essays, essays about “Life Lessons Learned from Soccer” or “How My Trip to Europe Broadened my Cultural Horizons.” The spokesperson said that the CollegeWise workshop will show prospective college applicants what admissions officers are really looking for in a great college essay, and instructors will offer suggestions on finding and sharing applicants’ best stories.
