Essays/Personal Statements
While writing college admissions or graduate school essays can seem like a daunting process, we are here to help students craft strong pieces of writing that accurately presents a facet of themselves. In the process, we help students improve their writing skills and their approach to writing in ways that will benefit them through college and beyond.
From brainstorming topics and developing ideas to providing feedback and guiding them through the finishing touches such as grammar and punctuation, we want students to develop the most polished essay possible.
We assist students with the following:
- Main Common Application or Coalition essay
- Essays for colleges that do not accept the Common Application or Coalition Application
- Supplemental essays to the Common Application and Coalition Application
- Graduate, law or medical school personal statements
Our professional writing specialists see clients who are working through the college admissions process on their own and only seek help with essays. They also review the final essay draft that clients write with their college consultant for a fresh look before the applications are submitted.
