Personal Testimony (600)

In 400-600 words, please tell us about your faith. Your testimony should include an answer to the question of “Who is Jesus?” and what He means for your life.

Editor's notes

  • Apply early action by Nov. 10. That date also unlocks the Maclellan and Wilberforce scholarships, and you'll hear by Dec. 15.
  • Your testimony and faith reference carry real weight. The CDS rates the essay, character and religious commitment very important, as high as GPA and test scores.
