The College Essay Workshop: Personal Statements & Supplemental Essays
June 25th
8 PM ET
Live on Zoom
What You’ll Learn:
The personal statement introduces who you are. The supplements prove you belong at each school. Together they are where your voice takes center stage, and for many students they are the most daunting part of the application. Whether you are staring at a blank page or refining a final draft, this workshop helps you craft a narrative that resonates in the committee room.
-
Decoding the Prompt: What admissions officers are really looking for, from the personal statement to "Why Us" and "Why Major" supplements.
-
Finding Your Voice: Exercises to move past "resume-padding" and write with authentic, powerful agency.
-
Building the Narrative: How to shape a single moment into a story with momentum from the first line to the last.
-
One Story, Many Schools: How to tailor supplements to each college without starting from scratch.
