Writing Tips for UConn
Expert advice for this specific school
🦷
Shadowing — Specifics Matter: List each shadowing experience with practice type, hours, and what you observed. If you're still completing hours, give a clear and credible timeline.
✏️
Proofread Thoroughly: Read each response aloud and have a mentor review it. Typos and grammatical errors signal carelessness to admissions committees.
📅
Submit Early: Most schools review secondaries on a rolling basis. Submitting within 2 weeks of receiving your secondary significantly improves your interview chances.
