About

I've limited the series to five learners to allow for personalized feedback. This is primarily intended for rising seniors, but others are welcome to attend. Please only join if you will actively participate. Using chat is completely acceptable.

I want to help you create a cohesive application that strategically connects your extracurriculars, essays, and experiences in a way that will make you stand out. My goal is to make every week very discussion oriented so your peers can easily give advice too.

Each week we will be covering different key aspects of the college application. If you're serious about attending a competitive institution and want to get a head start on the application then this series is for you! You aren't expected to have any parts of your application completed prior to the series.

This is the current schedule. 

Session 1 - Colleges/Extracurriculars 
Session 2 - Common Application Essay
Session 3 - Supplemental Essays/Preparing for Fall Semester
