For this question: “Reflecting on your personal experiences or circumstances, tell us something about yourself not already or sufficiently communicated in your scholarship application that distinguishes you as a scholarship candidate.”

What are they asking exactly? What kind of “personal experiences or circumstances” would fit here to distinguish people as scholarship candidates? For example, would elaborating on my passion for screenwriting be appropriate? How about touching upon an interest of mine that is unique? Or would discussing my bisexuality or atheism (I suppose two “personal experiences” that make me a minority in some ways) more what they’re looking for? Any advice would be appreciated.
