Explication d'exercice en Anglais

Sujet du devoir

 
Bonjour,

J'ai un devoir en Anglais que je ne comprend pas trop. Voici l'énoncé :

You have applied to a prestigious American university to follow the course of your choice.
The university has sent the following note with the application form.

As part of the admission procedure, American students must write a 1000 word essay to convince the admissions committee that they should accept their application.
All international students must send the admissions committee a recording of their talk on these two different subjects:
1. “How I think attending an American university can contribute to my self-fulfilment.”
2. “Why I think this university should consider my application.”
Each talk must last at least 1 min. 30.

Record your talk on both subjects. (Remember that the objective is to convince the admissions committee that you are a particularly interesting person with original ideas and / or exceptional academic or sporting skills, who would be a valuable addition to the university community.)

Où j'en suis dans mon devoir

 J'ai donc compris qu'il fallait convaincre l'université afin qu'elle me choisisse. Mais avec quels arguments ? Pourriez-vous simplement me donner quelques idées ? Merci infiniment, j'ai vraiment besoin de votre aide.
