“Thanks so much for the essay help and guidance you gave me. I couldn’t have done it without you!”

Allison, Sarah Lawrence, Class of 2010

“Thanks, Jeannie, for all your help on my college essays. They would have never turned out as good without your support. In fact, they might have made the difference in my getting accepted.”

Kristen Rosendo, University of California, Santa Barbara, Class of 2009

 

"The essay is the life support system of the application. The essay is the applicant's opportunity to breathe some life into the folder, to remind the reader that all of those numbers and letter grades and adjectives and test scores and lists of activities represent, for better or worse, yet another and different person out there."

Fred A. Hargadon, Dean of Admisisons, Princeton University

 

The Application Process

It’s time to get serious about your college search.

Are you ready to send in strong applications in the fall? Have you decided where to apply, what your essay topic will be, or just need help staying organized? College Connections will help with every step and give you a plan to maximize your chances of admission and give you the competitive edge.

The essay is the student’s moment to let the admissions officers know who you are and what makes you unique. We make sure you don’t write about what is already in the application but add something new about yourself. College Connections helps you let your individuality shine so the colleges want to know more about you and want you in their schools.
