The way you express yourself can make all the difference.

Make your application essays stand out.

Applying to college can be incredibly stressful — from making your initial list of prospective colleges to staying organized and motivated throughout the process. I provide step-by-step guidance for one of the most important parts of the application, the part where you have the opportunity to share who you are in your own unique words: the essay.

The Essay

I offer essay support no matter where you are in the application and writing process. I work with you to craft essays you will be proud of, that express your values and goals, and that make an authentic and meaningful contribution to your overall application.

Here are a few ways I will support you.

  • We will review the Common App questions as well as essay prompts from each school on your list to determine which ones suit your experience and goals.

  • We will do a variety of brainstorming activities to help you develop strong ideas for application essays that highlight your strengths, passions, and goals in a way that feels true for you.

  • I will guide you through refining and organizing your ideas to have the greatest impact.

  • Together, we review the essays word for word, revising sentences for punctuation, grammar, and sentence structure, putting the final touches on cohesiveness and tone.

  • I will offer suggestions and provide tools for staying organized throughout the application process, keeping you on track to meet the different due dates while also keeping you excited for your future college experience.
