Application Essay Development
Choosing a major, thinking about a career, and deciding on where to pursue
higher education can be very daunting for most people, let alone a high school
senior! With our help, your child will find the direction he or she needs to succeed
in a journey towards self-discovery.
Why is the College Application Essay so important?
• Your academic record is a significant portion of your college application…but it's
not everything!
• Admissions officers only have about 3-4 minutes to see your application; a
strong personal statement is your best chance to make a lasting impression.
• The college essay is the best indicator for admissions officers to see who you
are.
• A successful essay is a product of thoughtful self-reflection; it shows how AND
why you're a dynamic individual. This is your chance to stand out- don't miss this
opportunity!
