It's a great way to show your interest in the
college, to start a relationship with people
there and to show what you're all about.

Why are you interest in their College?
Why do you choose your major?
Who in your life has most influenced you?
Talk about a challenge that you overcome?
What do you like to do during your free time?
What will you contribute to the College?
How would you like to see yourself in 10
years?

For example:
 If you had a thousand dollars to give
away, what would you do with it?
 What's your opinion on the immigration
debate (or another topic in the news)?
 If you could change one thing about your
school, what would it be?
