Tell your story and connect with the college of your dreams for admission and financial aid
"If everyone wrote essays like this, admissions officers would have to take every student's essay seriously."
--Steve LeMenager, founder of Edvice Princeton and former director of admission at Princeton University
"With patience, contagious confidence, and plenty of real-life examples, Carol illuminates a process that can help anyone discover and articulate those stories that will help them stand out in their own way, and in their own words."
--Shelley Krause, college counselor, Rutgers Preparatory School, and curator of the College Lists Wiki
"Because the college essay offers applicants their lone opportunity to demonstrate what truly matters to them, and to share the qualities that make them unique, the stakes could not be any higher. With meticulous detail, Barash delivers a foolproof plan for helping college applicants strike essay gold."
--Chad Troutwine, cofounder and CEO of Veritas Prep
