Drafting Graduate School Application Essays - a Writing Workshop This in-person workshop is focused on several key elements of most graduate school applications (commitments, character, leadership, aspiration, and ambition), with prompts for journaling and reflection. We'll share tips about how to respond to essay prompts and how to weave together your personal story and your academic interests and professional aspirations. One of the useful outcomes of the workshop will be a brainstorming collection of very short writing pieces (which can provide seeds for future application essays). All GVSU students who are planning to apply to graduate school are welcome - all majors, all colleges!
Location Information
This workshop will take place at LIB 216 on the Allendale campus.
