Any topic (writer’s choice)
I’m applying for Virginia tech as a graduate student, my major is architecture, and they asked me to write a two-page paper.
Why do you want to undertake graduate work?
Why do you qualify to pursue a graduate degree at Virginia Tech?
What do you expect to derive from your program of study?
If you have a concentration or area of interest in mind, briefly outline your interests in this area.
What do you expect to contribute as a student and subsequently as a member of the profession?
If you have not previously indicated in your application the names of faculty members you are interested in working with, please include that information in this statement.
I also attached a draft that I answered one question from the above so you can just take that part and add it to whatever you will write.
