What is the freshman application essay question?
Filed under Freshman Admissions.
The personal essay can be a very important part of your application. What you provide helps the university know you as an individual, independent of grades, test scores and other objective data. We ask that you please submit one essay. Remember to stay within the 400-500 word maximum length.
How will your individual background, experiences and personal identity influence your educational pursuits and your contributions to the campus community at the University of Florida?
You may wish to reflect on the following:
- Significant life challenges or personal circumstances
- Exceptional talents and outstanding achievement
- Educational aspirations
- Personal and/or family responsibilities
