How to write a compelling college essay
It's easier said than done — high school English class doesn't necessarily prepare you for this creative writing assignment. And with so many essays to tackle, it's hard to know where to start. Working with an essay coach turns a stressful process into an exciting lesson in how to craft personal narratives.
Brainstorm your Unique Essay Strategy
Deciding which stories to tell in your college application is a strategic and deeply personal process. Your essay coach will help you select topics that convey your authentic and original self.
Draft Original Essays
The drafting stage is exciting and scary. You'll start with effective pre-writing exercises so that when it comes time to write, you're not just staring at a blank page. Plus, our expert writing tips will teach you how to approach writing first drafts for all of your essays.
Edit into a Standout Story
Most essays need at least 3 rounds of editing before they're ready to submit. Your essay coach will provide constructive, insightful feedback that helps you dig deeper and make sure your essays are infused with the right balance of creativity and clarity.
