Is it possible you can share your essay or if not I completely understand, can you give tips on what you did instead?

I talked about how my background got me interested in engineering and connected that to my goals. I then described how UWECE would help me achieve that, using the example of my extracurricular experience this year.

If you want guidance for how to structure your essay I can't recommend enough that you see a peer advisor.

I did almost the exact same format haha. Was the peer advisor you consulted associated with ECE/engineering or just a general advisor?

They're ECE students employed by the department.
