ASU Supplemental Essay Prompts 2026-2027
Under each prompt: what it is really asking, the mistake most applicants make, and the first question Jim asks you so the essay comes from your story, not a template.
- Barrett essay: choose one of the following prompts. (1) What is a question you find yourself returning to repeatedly? How does your pursuit of an answer, or even just the persistence of the question itself, suggest you are a strong fit for Barrett? (2) Tell us about a time when something did not go according to plan. Focus less on the outcome and more on how the ways you responded in the moment suggest you are a strong fit for Barrett. (3) What is an object that connects you to your family or community, and how or why does it do this? How does this connection make you a strong fit for Barrett?
500 words · optionalWhat they are really asking: Which of these three lets you show a real pattern in how you think?
The mistake most applicants make: Choosing the returning question and picking a grand one.
Do this instead: The object prompt often works best because it forces specifics. Pick a real object, the story around it, and what it shows about how you connect to people. Then say plainly why that fits an honors college.
Jim starts by asking you: “What object in your house tells a story about your family or community?” Answer it with Jim, free →
