I have a draft

One essay, written. You want to know how it reads and what to fix.

  • Beta read, $19. A short, high-level read of your essay: how an admissions reader is likely to receive it and what to work on. The $19 counts toward a Full Review.

    See the Beta read
  • Full Review, $49. Detailed feedback and line edits on one essay (500 to 650 words).

I have several essays or schools

A personal statement and supplements, or a full season of applications.

My application is finished

Everything is written and you want a last read before you submit.

We read your whole application the way an admissions office would, including activities and honors, and tell you what to fix.
