Why do I want to Attend a College Tour off Island to UH Hilo? As a junior in high school, I am at a crucial point in my teen years when making important decisions about my future should have taken place yesterday. One of these decisions is selecting the right college to attend. I have been considering several colleges and universities, but UH Hilo stands out as the best fit for me. To be honest I think attending a college tour to the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo (UH Hilo) is an opportunity that I am highly interested in as it offers a unique educational experience in Agriculture, Forestry & Natural Resource Management. I am eager to attend this college tour to learn more about the academic programs and resources offered by UH Hilo, as well as to gain a better understanding of what student life is like in a new environment.


Argument
- Stay on topic
- Deal with points in the same order as they are listed in your preview sentence
- Use a clear topic sentence at the beginning of each paragraph to introduce and summarize the paragraph’s point
- Ensure that the key words in the topic sentence echo the words used in your preview sentence so that the reader can see where and how your argument is progressing
- Use sentences, not bulleted points

Quotations
- Choose quotations carefully—only use them if they back up your points, and do not quote too much (5-10% of paper at most)
- Always document your sources, even if they came from class readings

Conclusion
- Briefly sum up your argument and relate it to your thesis
