The essay
questions are an opportunity to help the admissions committee learn more
about you as a potential member of the Tuck community. Please be clear,
succinct, forthright, and thoughtful in your responses. We ask that you
share what you truly feel, as opposed to writing what you think the
admissions committee would like to read. There are no right or wrong
answers. We do not allow substitution or replacement of essay responses
after an application has been submitted.
Please
respond fully but concisely to the following essay questions. Compose each
of your answers offline in separate document files and upload them
individually in the appropriate spaces below. Although there is no
restriction on the length of your response, most applicants use, on
average, 500 words for each essay. Please double-space your responses.
