There is one common factor among an overwhelming majority of students who have been admitted into schools and programs of their choice: an outstanding essay or statement that made the application jump out from the rest.
Put yourself in a typical admissions committee's position: anywhere from hundreds to tens of thousands of applications to review. And even once the "easy" cuts have been made based on GPA, test scores, or extracurricular experiences, there are still many more applicants left in the running than there are slots left to fill. This is where both the strength of your communication skills and the strength of what you're communicating come into play. Too many essays waste their words repeating what the committee already knows from other aspects of the application. Others make the mistake of sounding just like everybody else's. My philosophy is simple. Every student has a story to tell; my focus is on helping the student find the story that will stick out in the mind of the reader. My application essay services range from finishing touches to a complete step-by-step program that begins with brainstorming and ends with mailing your apps. And of course, everything in between... TIMELINE: Superlative essays and statements require far more than one draft; six weeks are suggested from conception to completion. This timeline may vary depending on the number of schools to which the student is applying and the number of distinct essays the student must write. EXPECTATIONS: Please be aware that this is not an essay-writing service; students must do their own work and will be expected to complete drafts and edits on time in order not to jeopardize the quality of their final applications. By gaining familiarity with Common Application questions (college applicants) and departmental focuses and expectations (graduate school applicants), students can greatly facilitate the caliber and efficiency of the process.
