If you want to know what your essay, your Y NYU essay needs, check out this video linked above. However, if you want some inspiration from a happy student walking around Greenwich Village as we speak, stick around I'm sharing their Y NYU essay. Hi, I'm Dr. Josie with Write Your Acceptance with hundreds and hundreds of students already in college or graduates by now. I know what they're looking for. Stick around. So I'm going to share my screen now so that you can see exactly what the student wrote, but basically step one is your big Y. So here it goes. Studying at New York University, an epicenter for critical discourse would allow me to examine the construction of identity and diversity through collaborative learning. I wish to explore different opinions and new experiences through interacting with a global student body and faculty. Through my university career, I aspire to nurture connections with people of varying opinions as I believe this to be a lost art in today's public life. NYU's emphasis on inclusion creates the perfect environment for me to gain access to these multiple perspectives while formulating my own. So this is her big Y she wants to attend New York University. Step two are the details you want to use to support that big Y in an academic setting first. So here it goes. I am looking forward to the independence associated with going away to college while still within an intimate academic setting through NYU's core program. I am particularly drawn to the core curriculum and its focus on incorporating diversity into the intimate classrooms through its social and cultural foundation courses. It would be a privilege to learn from Professor Lisa Duggan from the Department of Social and Cultural Analysis. Her courses like race, gender and sexuality in US history would allow me to explain how individuals assume identities and break from stereotypes. These inquiry based courses will deepen my knowledge of identity politics in order to critically question such narratives through a social justice lens. No matter which direction I decide to take, I am confident that NYU has an excellent program for me to pursue. Now, if you know exactly what major you're going to study, you want to pursue, then this is where you put that towards the beginning of the Y and NYU supplement. However, this student has an interest, an intellectual passion that she wants to kind of examine social justice and identity politics. And so she's putting that through kind of the lens of a course, but she's not naming a specific major. She's naming more kind of general courses. Step three, extracurriculars. Now, this is a section where you put kind of beyond the classroom stuff. Further, from working for a high fashion designer like Chanel to exploring the world in politics through working with the United Nations or UNICEF, when it comes to internships and study away programs, NYU's possibilities are endless. I can pursue internships at any point in my college experience, allowing me to gain hands on experience. However, when not in Greenwich Village, I would enroll in a study away curriculum. A few of interests are fashion culture in the body in London and a history of immigration in Europe and US in Florence. I can even polish my French and enroll in a gender and sexuality course in Paris. So the student is really showing very specific programs, study away versus study abroad. So notice how that is kind of particular to NYU. They say study away versus study abroad, which is much more popular. So they are naming exactly what they would kind of study and where they would go. So the more specific you are, the better. Are you having trouble with your NYU supplement or other why us supplements? Comment below, I'd love to help you out. Step four, sprinkle in some NYU flair. So here we go. As an NYU student, I would proudly extend the liberal arts mission of interrogating established and new traditions to positively shape our future. I look forward to walking into the Boat's Library nestled on the corner of Washington Square South and feel like I've come home. Some counselors will tell you to not use the mission statement and I understand where they're coming from. But sometimes when the messaging and overall thought process of the why supplement works in tandem with the mission statement, not just kind of slap it on at the end, but it kind of, you know, you can integrate it nicely. Then then I say go for it, but definitely kind of name landmarks, you know, Boat's Library Greenwich Village. So you really kind of see yourself socially, culturally and academically at NYU.
