Can anyone please tell me what an example of this would look like or what I should include in it?

Transfer application essays follow the same sort of "rules" that personal statements do, in terms of function. However, in terms of how you go about it, you do have to go an extra mile. You've already had a semester (or more) under your belt and your essay should somehow reflect this-- ideally, you should talk more specifically about what you're looking for out of your education. What are you looking to accomplish at a new school? What are your academic/professional interests and were they always your interests or are these recent developments?
