The college essay, or 'Personal Statement,' has become a key differentiator in the admissions process. Especially for students from small and rural schools, the essay you submit is critically important in shaping your overall story and profile, admissions officers want to see in order to better understand your unique candidacy. Rural kids are very often competing for the same spots as kids for top public schools and even elite private college prep schools, and the best way to stand apart as an interesting candidate well-worthy of consideration by a selective college or university, is to knock the essay out of the park. Our 1-on-1 coaching session — that's one highly qualified writing coach working directly with one highly motivated student — provides students with up to 3-hours of Zoom-based contact time, and unlimited proofing, and essay feedback notes. We're not finished until you've got your best effort ready to submit and you say we're finished.
