A three-day method for writing a college essay that stands out to admissions committees. The strategy focuses on doing things differently and letting your story come alive, with a track record of helping students get into selective schools.
I'm putting it into 3 days, bringing the most impactful lessons and takeaways so that you can sit down over the next 3 days and write out a personal statement, an essay for your college applications that's going to make you stand out. Okay, so there's a theme in everything I do: to get different, you do different. So our approach to the college essay, the personal statement, is very different than everybody else. You see, we've recognized over the years that if we approach this in a way that makes our students stand out, they get remembered by the admissions committee. The admissions committee feels for them. They champion that student in front of the rest of the committee, and they stand out in a way that makes them shine and get accepted. And the essay is something you have control over. So if you're a senior, for example, and you're thinking about your essay and you're recognizing this pile of applications, or you have a Common App, personal statement you're thinking through. I want you to take the next 3 days, step back, open mind, and trust this process. This is something that we've used for students who've gotten into the most selective colleges, into the academies, into the dream colleges of our students, and they did it by making their story come alive.
