A Prediction
You can close your essay with a forecast for a person, place, or thing related to your thesis. Here’s an example from
a college application essay:
Thirty years from now, when I’m 48, I will retire and survey my empire. I will have created and led a hugely success-
ful Fortune 500 company; I will have used my considerable wealth to set up a literacy foundation and a home for orphans
in my native Cuba. Deeply satisfied with my accomplishments, I will then establish scholarships for disadvantaged stu-
dents to Briarwood College, for I will recall with great gratitude that my education there made all of my accomplish-
ments possible.
