Hey everyone! I'm currently writing and rewriting my personal statement for SCA. I've been looking at a lot of online advice encouraging an essay that showcases personality and individuality above all else. I've honestly been struggling trying to find a balance that shows the kind of person I am and also talks a bit about why I'm applying, etc. I'm also worried it might not be the kind of tone/anecdotal style they're watching for. Would love anyone who knows what USC is looking for to take a look at my draft and offer any feedback they can! Please let me know. Thank you :)
