Let's face it---there's nothing more frustrating than getting started on your personal statement, only to feel like you're confused by advice from parents and teachers and never actually getting anywhere. And there's nothing more disheartening than putting in the work to write the essay---only to have it feel like a total flop.
You know that you should have already crossed this essay off your to-do list. Maybe you've even attempted to write it or asked a teacher or older sibling for help.
And yet, it's not quite working.
You don't understand the point of the essay. You have no idea where to even begin. You're so B.E.H.I.N.D. on your application deadlines (and endless schoolwork). And you're feeling pressure, pressure, and more pressure to get it all done.
Some of your peers make it look easy. But for you, it's been anything but. You thought that the hard part was going to be deciding which prompt to write about, but as it turns out, that was only just the beginning. And now you feel like you must be missing something.
And you're not alone. Most first-time college applicants are.
The truth is that having a strong college admission essay is a game-changer, one that will increase your confidence in the application process and even help you get accepted into your dream schools.
The problem? Comparing yourself to your peers, procrastinating, and not understanding the purpose of the essay often make writing a personal statement feel impossible.
But what if there was a way to make sure you got it right?
A former AP English teacher and community college adjunct writing instructor, I know a thing or two about what makes good writing. But more importantly, I have walked hundreds of my high school students through writing their college application essays.
I have a proven process for helping students tell their unique stories to win over admissions teams. I have watched countless seniors proudly walk across the stage on graduation day knowing they will be attending their dream college in just a few short months. A well-written college admission essay helps make that dream a reality.
Guiding students through the application process by writing an effective personal statement brings me pure joy. Every student deserves to feel supported (not overwhelmed) on their journey to higher education. But unfortunately, most high schools don't provide you with the resources that you really need.
I designed this course using the same approach that I used in the classroom with my high school seniors, so I know it works. And I know it will work for you too!
Slay Your College Admission Essay is a self-paced digital course designed to help you through a guided process of writing your personal statement so that admissions teams say "Absolutely" to accepting you to their institutuion after reading your essay.
If you are a high school junior or senior, or if you are totally lost when it comes to writing your admission essay, this is an opportunity that I promise you will not want to miss.
Here's the thing. Writing a college application essay is different from all the other essays you've written in high school. And unfortunately, most students don't realize that and end up writing essays that are so generic that many admissions counselors won't read past the second sentence. The essay you write in this course will do just the opposite. Here's how the course works:
In this phase, the goal is making sure you have the right mindset about the college admission process. Then you will begin narrowing down the best topic to write about and get your initial ideas on paper.
In this phase, you will go through the steps of organizing your ideas, setting up a useful outline to structure your essay, and then actually writing the first rough draft of your essay.
In this final phase, you will go through a series of modules to take your essay from "pretty good" to "very memorable" by ensuring it reflects your unique voice and contains no distracting errors.
