Michigan also uses the common app. As readers of the blog know, no university application is simple.
Michigan requires 2 supplementary essays ,Let's look at these more carefully:
Essay #1 (Required for all applicants. Approximately 250 words.)
Everyone belongs to many different communities and/or groups defined by (among other things) shared geography, religion, ethnicity, income, cuisine, interest, race, ideology, or intellectual heritage. Choose one of the communities to which you belong, and describe that community and your place within it.
This is a very open ended question which is meant to give you the chance to write about your sense of identity. The size of the community is not defined. This could be just your family your ethnic group or just your school. Do note that the term community can be defined by interest. Therefore my personal answer would be geek. You can tie this into your academic and career interests by selecting entrepreneur or scientist as your group.
Try to select the influences that are important to you. As mentioned earlier avoid the cliches of citing your parents as your main influence.
This essay has a 250 word limit so its best to keep it concise, don't forget to talk about your place in the community.
