Answer 1

Some colleges require that each potential student completes an essay.

Subjunctive mood is defined as the verb form used to express a wish, a suggestion, a command, or a condition contrary to fact.

To convert the above sentence into a subjunctive mood, REPLACE REQUIRE WITH PROPOSE.

Some colleges propose that each potential student completes an essay.

In this case, propose means a suggestion.
