College Application Essays
Writing an application essay can be daunting. Many students wonder, “What do I write about?” or “How do I show my positive qualities?” Heather Forgione has 20 years experience coaching students with writing application essays and has helped many students apply to top-tier schools. Creating an essay you will be proud of and colleges will enjoy can be a fun and rewarding process. This process includes:
- Advance planning and brainstorming to ensure that the topic chosen highlights a quality or experience of the student that the reader cannot readily see from the rest of the application
- Writing essays that will answer multiple essay questions, limiting your workload
- Multiple revisions for content and edits for grammar
- Assistance with staying on task and meeting deadlines
