College Essay Workshop Led by an Ivy League Educated Coach
Christopher Hunt is an Ivy League-educated college essay coach with more than a decade of experience helping students craft compelling personal statements for highly selective colleges and universities.
A step-by-step method for writing a standout college essay
Writing your college essay is daunting. You're supposed to tell a story that's personal but not too personal, impressive but not boastful, creative but still clear — and do it in 650 words or less. Most advice makes it harder, not easier. You get brainstorming exercises, topic lists, and vague encouragement to "be authentic" that leave you with pages of ideas and no clear direction.
This college essay workshop is different. Working one-on-one with more than 700 students over the past decade, I've developed a method that cuts through the confusion. It’s the same process behind more than 1,000 admissions to the Ivy League, Stanford, and other top universities. In this intensive boot camp, you'll learn that method at a fraction of the cost of private coaching.
By the end of the session, you'll know exactly what to write and how to write it. No more staring at a blank page. Just a concrete plan and a first draft you believe in.
What college admissions officers want to learn from your personal statement.
How to identify an essay topic that reveals your character and values.
Ways to structure your story so admissions officers understand you.
In this workshop, you'll learn:
