In the passage, what does the underlined word "precluded" mean as it is used on page 2

I mean, you didn't give me the passage, but I can give you the definition of the word.

Explanation:

Preclude is a verb, meaning to prevent something from happening, or to make something an impossibility. It can also be used to describe the action of preventing a person from doing something.

hey there!

the reasoning behind university’s having students create prompts is to mainly get to know the person better. they want to know their interests, goals, personality,

it’s also a good way for the university to see the persons focuses in life. for example, if someone’s room is very organized and clean, usually all aspects of their life are the same.

so really, having people prompting to apply to a university is so the college can get more information about that person.

hope this you! if you need any more details, i’d be happy to
