How should I start my college essay?

How to start an autobiographical essay for college admission?

  • How exactly should I start the essay? Saying what? I didn't have to write one for the first school I went to to get accepted.

  • Answer:

    You don't have to write an essay in order. That's why we edit and revise things. Write an outline of all the things you'd like to say, then flesh out a few paragraphs. You can always change up the order along the way, and even write the opening last. Starting to write things down will get your thoughts in order, and the tone of your essay may suggest interesting ways to start the essay when you're nearly finished.

Better universities usually ask for this, particularly private school. Tell them all about yourself. Usually, a senior level high school English course teaches you how to write one of these. There are scads of examples all over the internet (just google "personal essay for college" and you'll see lots. There are many ways to start them. "I was born in _____" is one way. Then you tell about whether you grew up in a small town or a big one, what your family is like, what you did in school, and all the great reasons why they want you. It's a good idea to indicate that you have some sort of career path that links you to the particular school to which you are applying. Good luck!
