~500 words each.

  1. We invite you to dream big and use this space to share your aspirations for your best self and how you will use your time at UMass Lowell to accomplish your goals. The “you” that will join us encompasses multiple identities, some visible and others not, and participates in multiple communities. Your communities may include various aspects of your lived experiences, such as the families and communities with whom you live, work, play, worship, or even your ethnicity, or gender. This essay prompt is an invitation to talk about the influence of one or more of your communities on your life and your future at UMass Lowell and beyond.
