College Admissions Services: Essay Editing and Advising

This year, admissions committees around the country will receive and read tens of thousands of applications. How will you stand out among the competition? How will you tie together all of your coursework, extracurricular activities, and personal experiences? Will your essay show the admissions committee who you are and persuade them that you would be a necessary addition to their academic community?

John Latting, the director of admissions at John's Hopkins University weighs in on the importance of the essay in the college application process: "There are essays that are compelling, that make the difference. So students should know that essays should be taken seriously. If a student puts effort into essays, they should help his or her chances. The remarkable thing about essays is that there's no ceiling on quality, unlike SAT scores or GPA’s. A great essay can carry a student. A poorly done essay might do the opposite. It can certainly determine the initial path an application takes through the process."*
