A good application gives the university a holistic idea of who you are, not only in terms of your academic results, but your personality, your vision for the future and your potential to achieve your aspirations. Your essays are your chance to tell your story, and for this reason they constitute an extremely important component of your application. Written well, they can compensate for potential weaker areas (GPA, test scores); at the same time, a low quality essay will make even impressive academic results lose their value. Your GTU consultant will guide you in the writing process, making sure you first of all understand your own gifts, talents, and vision for the future, and secondly that you are able to convey them effectively to the university of your dreams.
