Essay prompts
Confirmed with the school
No supplemental essays — personal statement only.
For the general first-year application, University of South Carolina requires no school-specific essay this cycle — the Common App personal statement is the writing. Nothing is missing from this page: we list none because the school publishes none. Individual programs (honors, scholarships, or a particular major) can still ask their own questions — the source below is the school's own statement.

How reviews use this page
When you request a review for a University of South Carolina supplement, the feedback is grounded in exactly what you see here: the prompt itself, its word limit, and what the school publishes about its values and programs. That's the whole claim — calibrated to the prompt and the school's own published guidance, scored against a consistent rubric. Not insider knowledge, and never a rewrite: Second Read is a coach, not a ghostwriter. It flags weaknesses and tells you what to fix and why; it never writes a sentence of your essay.
Something wrong on this page?
A wrong deadline is worse than no deadline. If anything here doesn't match the school's official page, tell us — same-day fix is the goal.
