for a person whos never visited a univeristy or even set foot in america
how do i write these sort of essays? (i have 3 of these to write)
like sure i can talk about their department and stuff but should i talk something about since i've never been before i may not know or not inspired as much as others are about certain universities?

in general, any tips to write such essays? thanks!

you can admit not visiting the country before but go to the school's website and research as much as posssible and then talk about the things that interest you the most

like look through their catalog and pick a course that stands out and mention it in your essay

and if you can somehow look through the directory find a student and ask some questions about the university

even though you have never visited the school or made some contact with it, the school would be impressed that you did this much research

Yes, it is true that watching videos online and studying the website give you plenty of understanding, even if you have not actually been there.

Try to connect values that a prominent in your country with values that are emphasized by the school That will go a long way to show your thoughtfulness.

Try to focus on your aspirations -- academic and professional -- and how the school can help you to achieve them. With a focus on your aspirations, you can write about the special resources provided by the school It will show your seriousness.
