Conquering College Applications: A Writing Workshop for Juniors & Seniors

The college application process can feel overwhelming — especially the writing. Between personal statements, supplemental essays, short responses, and professional emails, students often struggle to know where to begin or how to make their voice stand out. This 4-week workshop is designed to make that process easier, clearer, and far less stressful for both students and families.

Through guided instruction and hands-on writing time, students will learn how to:

  • Write a powerful, authentic personal statement
  • Break down confusing supplemental essay prompts
  • Highlight strengths, experiences, and goals with clarity
  • Structure, revise, and polish essays effectively
  • Communicate professionally in emails to colleges or recommenders
  • Understand what admissions readers are actually looking for

Whether they’re seniors completing their final applications or juniors getting a smart head start, students will leave this workshop with stronger writing skills, greater confidence, and polished materials that help them truly stand out.


Duration: 4 Meetings (Thursdays)

Dates: January 22, 29, February 5 & 12

Time: 4pm to 6pm
