I'm so glad to find this forum! I'm freaking out! Specifically: I'm doing my writing portion of applications this month which is a ~struggle~ and I'm currently working on an "About Me" section for UGA Athens - it's the first prompt like this that I've come up against. Not an artist statement or a statement of intent, but an area to speak: "about you and your background. Really an area for you to just tell us about yourself as if we were in dialogue in person. An area for you to share what you feel is important to know about you as an artist and person." (<-- further clarification from the graduate office) Getting hung up on this one. Anyone have experience with this? Advice? I know it's entirely up to me I'm just struggling with how deep to go, what direction to go, etc. (Also tried to post this question earlier today and in the midst of being new to the grad cafe format and my own general confusion just started my own forum which now just randomly....exists, halp. ??‍♀️.)

Anybody in the midst of applications right now?
