If you are applying to college, you’ll be writing a personal statement. It’s a nerve-wracking prospect: you have to be interesting, smart, and memorable to a group of people you’ve never met—and all in just a few pages. Sound tough? You’re right: it is.
You don’t want to sound like every other applicant or make the basic mistakes that many students make. We can help you with that. For $20, we’ll go over your essay and offer you a thorough response (click here to see samples of our work).
We’ll give you quick, expert, useful feedback at an economical price. Or, if you prefer, we offer an expedited editing package so you can meet your looming application deadline, or multi-step editing packages if you feel you need more than one round of feedback and edits.
We’ve helped hundreds of applicants; you can see some of their testimonials below. We love what we do! And don’t worry: The application process intimidates even the most accomplished student. Having a quality reader can help ease your mind, and focus your edits. Take a look at our editing packages; we think you’ll find one that fits your needs.

The time is nigh

If you’ve been waiting to write your application essays, get cracking: you don’t want to be one of those applicants who bumps up against the nth hour.
One of the big changes that has come with online application systems is that schools can now see exactly when you applied. In fact, your application will drop into a queue when you finally hit “submit”; you don’t know how many people will be ahead of you in that queue, but the longer you wait to apply, the longer that list of people will be.
Applicants who apply well before the deadline have time to do important things like make sure all of their letters of recommendation have been received, and send thank-you notes to people they’ve interviewed with. But most importantly, people who apply early do not have the time stamp 11:59 PM on their applications. If you think this is not noticed when adcomms have to go through thousands of applications, you are kidding yourself. And if your essays seems hastily thrown together and poorly edited, it’s not hard to imagine that adcomms will assume that you cannot manage your time.
Do yourself a favor: choose a deadline for yourself that is at least a week before your actual deadline. You’ll be glad you did! And, so will the adcomms.
