Dear alumni and aspiring alumni of U.S. Exchange programs!
We all know that getting into a U.S. Exchange program can be very competitive — you’ll need good grades, test scores, and references. But one area not to overlook is the quality of your application essay. Especially for international students, a solid essay can make or break your application. A good essay will not only prove your command of English, but also make you stand out in the crowd.
Edx, among many others, has a great online course on essay writing, grammar, and editing. If you’d like to improve your writing skills, definitely give it a look!
