Knock Your Essay out of the Park

College reps tell us what they don’t want to read, so we re-direct students to unique topics.

We help students select a compelling essay topic, craft a draft, and collaborate to revise and edit the essay. 

The essay is the one part of the application which is completely under the student’s control. It serves as the face of the application—and should reveal something about the student that is not discoverable from the application alone. 

Get Coached on Interview Techniques 

Students practice responding to actual interview questions and receive immediate feedback.

Take-away Tips and Timeline 

What parts of the application should you be doing when?

How do you go beyond the well-scripted Admissions Office presentation to get a genuine sense of the students and the college?

Q & A with a Seasoned Pro

Ask away! You’ve got questions about the process—and we’ve got answers backed by years of experience.
