About

This College Admissions Workshop on The Essay is a virtual 4-week workshop designed to provide you with structure and support to write your college essays this summer.

In this workshop, you will:
  • Learn the purpose and the must-dos of the personal statement
  • Learn and practice strategies for picking a prompt, brainstorming, drafting, and revising your writing
  • Understand the role of supplemental questions and strategies for organizing your questions and responses
  • Work alongside other students who are also preparing to apply to college.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss more than one session over the four weeks, as that will negatively affect your learning and may also take up a spot from another learner who could have attended every session. You are allowed one unexcused absence in this program before you may be removed from the series. Repeated unexcused absences from required sessions may result in suspension from the Schoolhouse platform.

If you must miss a session, please submit an excused absence on your series page.

Note from Schoolhouse: This series has sessions with required attendance. If you need to miss a required session, submit an absence using the "Submit Excused Absence" button on the series page. Multiple unexcused absences may lead to a suspension of your Schoolhouse account.

About the Tutor

Hi! I'm currently a college freshman and I'm excited to be joining Schoolhouse as a college admissions tutor! Some things I love to do are boxing, running, meeting new people, and listening to music.
