As part of your online application, you must upload a one-page, single-spaced, essay on teamwork. Describe your approach to working in teams. Include concrete examples of times that interpersonal communication and conflict resolution skills have proven critical in your life, or times you learned about the value and challenges of working with people who hold different perspectives.
