<p>Can you fit the essay into one of the existing categories? for instance, i also wrote on the picture prompt, but it dealt with an international issue i am particularly passionate about (from a picture and chicago-ish i think, i didn’t just do a typical commonapp essay). I’m putting it under the international issue prompt on the common app, so i don’t have to write a prompt that might reveal the original prompt. maybe yours would work the same way?</p>
