UChicago essay sample?

I'm working on my university applications and I'm wondering if anyone has a good 'Why University of Chicago' essay sample? I'm struggling with my own and could use some inspiration. Please help!

While I don't have specific examples on hand, I'd recommend checking out Collegevine's essay guides page, and their UChicago essay example (https://blog.collegevine.com/uchicago-essay-example) to get an idea of what other students have written.

Although looking at examples can definitely be helpful, just keep in mind that your essay should be unique and personal, as admissions officers want to see that you've done your research on UChicago and have genuine reasons for wanting to attend.
