How to Apply to College: A Step-by-Step Course on Creating an Awesome College Application

 How to Apply to College: A Step-by-Step Course on Creating an Awesome College Application

The course comes in two parts:

I've put pretty much everything I know about helping students write great college essays into an easy-to-follow, step-by-step video course. I’ve developed a suite of resources so that students will have everything they need to not only write an awesome personal statement, but also tackle their supplemental essays, activities list, the additional information statement, and the new (optional) COVID-19 question.

Still working on your EA/ED colleges? While our first live session isn't until November 13th, you'll receive all the video lessons as soon as you register, and can work through those lessons to put the finishing touches on those essays before focusing on later deadlines.

  • Get started writing today. By popular demand and based on our wildly different schedules, I've recorded all of the lessons in video format. So, after you sign up, you'll get instant access and can binge watch them and starting right away.
  • Brand new content in my new essay revising tool. After analyzing hundreds of outstanding personal statements, I've developed some new approaches that I think will help students find their topics and write better college essays in an even more efficient way and put them in my new Choose Your Own Adventure essay tool.
  • Updated content for 2021 supplemental essays. I've updated the course with brand new content on the 2021 supplemental essay topics released by colleges in the Common App on August 1st. On the course I'll share guides for writing the supplemental essays for a wide range of colleges.
  • A Discord community. Connect with your peers, find a writing partner, and stay motivated and on track over the next few weeks and months. Yes, this might even be fun.
