Requirements to be submitted with the application are as follows:

Attachment #2: In an essay of 500-1000 words, answer either (a) or (b):

a) Imagine you could bring up to three historical figures back from the past to address an important question facing the world today that you yourself are passionate about. Who would you bring, and what problem would you strive to address together? What does each of the historical figures bring to the conversation? These historical figures may have little in common: they can be from different time periods and cultures.

b) Choose a mix of 3-5 experiences, films, books, video games, musical compositions, computer programs, works of art (etc.) and develop an essay to describe how these have contributed significantly to your intellectual development.
