Essay Topics

You will have to write an essay only when you are an international candidate coming from a country where English is the official language or one of such languages. The essay is a means for us to make sure that indeed your command of academic English is fair enough to accept you as a student. Some candidates may be exempt from writing the essay: find out more here.

The essays should be written by the applicants.
