English Class Essays vs. College Essays
Most students have been writing English class essays for nearly their entire lives, but for many, the application season will be the first time they are asked to write personal statements and college supplements.
While the task of writing an essay on Shakespeare’s Hamlet or an essay on why you want to attend X college may sound similar, in actuality, the two are entirely different.
To help you distinguish between an English Class Essay vs. a College Application Essay, check out the infographic below.
Spoiler Alert: you do not, and should not, feel obligated to follow the strict rules that your English teachers have set in-place for essay writing. You can make your college application essays as ‘flowery’ or ‘straightforward’ as you’d like!
