Essay prompts
Not verified
No prompt text we can verify for 2026-27.
That means one of three things, and we won't guess between them: the school asks for no supplemental essay; it asks for one but never publishes the wording outside the application itself; or we haven't been able to confirm it. We publish prompt text only once it's confirmed against an official source — an empty section beats a wrong prompt. Until then the school's own requirements page below is the authority, and this page updates as soon as we can verify it.
The school's published AI policy
A candidate's personal statement must be their own work. The personal statement's purpose is to provide more insight into the candidate's own ideas, background, and writing abilities in English. Wesleyan recognizes there are artificial intelligence (AI) tools and resources available to candidates. Nonetheless, we expect that candidates' responses to all application questions are authentically their own and reflective of their abilities. Candidates may not submit as their own, any content either copied and pasted from an AI resource or authored by another individual. If it is determined that an applicant received inappropriate assistance with the application essays, candidacy will be compromised and/or admission rescinded.
This statement appears in Wesleyan's international-applicant section, not a universal policy.

Our reading
Wesleyan's "Special Statement About Authenticity, AI, and the Use of Agents" (published in the international admission section) requires the personal statement to be the candidate's own work and forbids submitting AI-copied or ghostwritten content as one's own, but stops short of prohibiting AI assistance such as feedback on a draft the applicant wrote.
How reviews use this page
When you request a review for a Wesleyan University 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.
