Essays
Institutions do not require all four essays. See “General Application Information” on pages ii through iv to
determine if you are required to write an essay or essays as part of your application for admission. Unless
otherwise specified, your essay(s) should be typed and be no longer than one page (8 1/2” x 11”). Put your name
and Social Security number at the top of each page.
Topic A.
Describe a significant setback, challenge or opportunity in your life and the impact that it has had on you.
Topic B.
Many students expand their view of the world during their time in college. Such growth often results from
encounters between students who have lived different cultural, economic, or academic experiences. With your
future growth in mind, describe a potential classmate that you believe you could learn from either within or
outside a formal classroom environment.
Topic C.
What additional information do you wish to be considered in the decision to admit you?
For example:
1. exceptional hardship, setback or personal experience that has shaped your abilities or academic credentials
2. personal responsibilities
3. exceptional achievements or special talents such as poetry, art, bilingual proficiency, etc.
4. educational goals and choice of major
5. ways you contribute to the commitment that the university has made to create an institution with a diverse
learning environment
Enclose documentation and references to contact for verification, if appropriate.
Topic D.
The essays in this section are specific to certain college majors and are not required by all colleges
that accept the Texas Common Application. Please see the “General Application Information” in the front of this
booklet. If you are not applying for a major in Architecture, Art or Art History you are not required to write
either of these essays.
D.1. Describe an aesthetic experience you have had that was brought about by an architectural space or
sequence of spaces, either interior or exterior. Try to link the nature of the experience to the nature
of the space.
D.2. Describe the art or art history instruction you have received thus far, either in or out of the classroom, and
what you believe you have learned from it. Given your background in art or art history, what has drawn
you to this university and what do you expect to gain from the instruction you will receive during your
undergraduate years.
Admission to any of the Texas institutions of higher education and any of their sponsored programs is open to qualified individuals
regardless of race, color, sex, creed, age, national origin or educationally unrelated handicaps.
