From devising topics that don’t sound cliché to crafting essays that insightfully articulate those topics, the process of writing a college essay can be daunting. This bootcamp will thoroughly explore the college essay writing process, with dos and don’ts for writing essays that are a testament to you, your character, and your passions. Through in-depth, one-on-one meetings, we will guide you on how to improve your main flagship essay and supplemental essays without detracting from their originality. And in the process, you will develop valuable writing skills that will last long after your college applications are complete.
This bootcamp will include:
We will meet several times with you to discuss your progress, field any questions, and suggest areas for improvement.
When you make edits to your essay drafts, we will be available to look over them as many times as you need.
Whether you need an extra nudge on your supplemental essays or are striving to give your flagship essay that personal flair, we will give you personalized advice that goes far beyond just how to meet the word requirement.
Generating unique ideas for how to respond to generic prompts can be challenging, so we will push you in the right direction! We will help guide you toward the essay “sweet spot” — a topic that speaks to who you are without appearing to be a truism.
Need extra help? Not a problem! Assistance with additional essays or customizations to this package are available. If you contact us, we will work with you individually and make sure you meet your needs.

Our students have gained admission to some
of the most prestigious colleges... it's your turn!

Absolutely! No matter what university you wish to attend, we will teach you how to submit an exceptional application with strong recommendation letters, essays, and a resume chock-full of your activities.
Of course! We understand that applying to college is a tedious and oftentimes confusing process, and we will walk you through the variety of ways (and apps) that you can use to apply for college, including the Common App, the Coalition App and so much more. And don’t worry! Rather than simply giving you a list of apps or application methods, we will teach you exactly how to use them so that you have no doubts when applying. Sounds like a good deal!
No. Instead, we will guide you on the best ways to receive financial aid and scholarships from colleges (and even from your high school!). We will help you maximize your ability to gain money for college so that you can minimize the amount of money that leaves your pocket.
