ESSAY QUESTIONS

These essay questions help us learn about you in ways that go beyond what your educational information alone can convey. Please use this opportunity to tell us what makes you unique.

Important! All three essays are required; please include them in a single document and attach it below. Be sure to include your name on the document and in the file name. There is no set length requirement, but 300 to 500 words per essay is a general guideline.

1. Share with us some information about your academic journey. We would like to know more about your high school experiences (hobbies, clubs, service, athletics, etc.), and what opportunities (work, hobbies, clubs, academics, co-curriculars, etc.) you have had while attending your previous college.

2. Describe the opportunities and challenges that you anticipate as you transition to Baldwin Wallace University from your previous college.

3. Discuss what you find compelling about the STEM field that you have chosen to study and why you would like to become a member of the STEM Scholars program. What do you think you will gain from the program and what could you contribute to it? *

REFERENCE INFORMATION

We will consider the teacher recommendation that was submitted with your BW application. Please provide us with contact information for an additional professor from your former institution, preferably whom you worked with in a STEM-related capactiy, and with whom we can follow up as necessary.
