    I have a question regarding the personal essay, what do they mean by "in no less than ten point font?" I'm quite confused about it

    • @EstherOlabisi
      @EstherOlabisi  Год назад +1

      You’re welcome! It means the font size must be more than 10 points large. Usually 11 or 12 is ok

    Hi Esther. Trust you're doing fine.
    My Question is kinda lengthy but i hope you respond 🙏🙏🙏
    Please regarding my application to Berea, I'm kinda confused and need your opinion.
    I just graduated from the university in Nigeria but don't want to continue in this field of study because of a practice common in Nigeria which is applying to a course you really don't want just to escape staying back at home for a year or so due to high cut off marks.
    So the thing now is, how do i explain my gap year in my application as I finished high school in 2019? Because of the fact you said Berea only accept those who haven't gotten a University degree, i was thinking of not including that i already have a university degree. Do you think it's going to have an effect on my application?
    I want to apply to Nursing in Berea but scared i might be rejected cause of the university degree stuff and having to explain my gap year if i state i haven't gotten any degree.

    • @EstherOlabisi
      @EstherOlabisi  2 года назад +2

      Hello, I don't think you are to write the coalition essay. According to the coalition website, they do not submit the essay to colleges that do not require it (E.g Berea).
