You do not have to be the most accomplished student to get into top schools, but you do have to know how to write a great essay. My story is proof.

I got into EVERY college I applied to, earned $600k in scholarships (including a full ride to Vanderbilt), and became a U.S. Presidential Scholar.

Yet I didn't found a nonprofit OR win national STEM awards.

What I DID do was write great essays that convinced colleges of my value.

College essays matter more than you think:

At highly selective colleges, many applicants have strong grades and test scores, so essays help admissions readers tell students apart.

  • 84 of the top 100 schools rate essays as “very important” or “important" to admissions decisions (Forbes)

  • Essays can get students into reach schools; 3 in 4 students with strong essays get accepted at one or more selective colleges where their academic profile is below the average admitted student (Prompt Admissions Counseling)

  • Essays play a big role in students receiving merit scholarships or honors like becoming a National Merit Finalist or U.S. Presidential Scholar

A strong essay can be the factor that helps one qualified student stand out from another.

What is Essay Done in 30 Days?

Most students spend months stressing over their Common App essay, rewriting it endlessly, second guessing every word, and still submitting something they are not fully confident in.

This package changes that.

In four sessions plus unlimited email support, we take your essay from idea to final draft. By the end, you will have a submission-ready essay that clearly shows admissions officers who you are and why they should want you on their campus.

You do not have to figure this out alone. I have done this 1,000+ times, and I can take you through the process so that you have the least stressful experience possible.

Don't Have 30 Days? You Don't Need Them.

30 days is the MOST this takes, and you can go a lot faster. If your deadline is two weeks away, we'll fit all four sessions into those two weeks. Early Decision or Early Action coming up? Book your sessions closer together, or email me your deadline and I'll help you plan them around it.

How Your Four Sessions Work:

Most students complete one session per week, but sessions can be scheduled at whatever pace your timeline requires.

Session 1: Find Your Story

We dig into your experiences, your mindset, and what makes you uniquely you. By the end of this call you will have a clear, compelling essay topic and a complete outline ready to write from.

Session 2: Build Your Draft

You write your first draft using the blueprint we built together. I am available via email throughout the week for any questions or moments where you get stuck. We get on our second call to review what you have written and map out exactly what needs to change.

Session 3: Revise and Strengthen

You revise based on our feedback session, and you can email me quick questions while you work. We get on our third call to do a deep edit together, sharpening your language, cutting what is not working, and making every word count.

Session 4: Polish and Perfect

Final revisions. Final call. We go through the essay line by line until it is exactly where it needs to be. You submit with full confidence.

What is Included:

  • Four 30 minute 1:1 video calls, one per week or scheduled at your pace

  • Unlimited email support for quick questions and guidance between sessions.

  • A complete essay topic and outline developed specifically for you in session one

  • Deep editing and revision on your essay during every call

  • The exact strategies I used to earn a full ride to Vanderbilt and get into every college I applied to

  • A PDF document after every call with all the essay ideas, hooks, outlines, and edits we worked on so nothing gets lost

Why Work With Me?

I get results. I have helped 1,000+ students write essays that got them into their dream schools like Cornell, Penn, NYU, Rice, Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech, UC Berkeley, UCLA, and Georgetown.

Here is what my strategy got me:

  • Accepted into EVERY college I applied to, including highly selective schools like NYU (7.7%), Rice (7.9%), and Georgia Tech (10% OOS)

  • $260K full ride scholarship to Vanderbilt University, awarded to only a few applicants across the entire pool of students who apply to Vanderbilt

  • $25K/year Presidential Scholarship at the University of Miami

  • $20K/year Gator Nation Scholarship at the University of Florida + accepted to the UF Honors Program (6% acceptance)

  • $2,500 National Merit Scholarship, only given to 2,500 of the 15,000 National Merit Finalists based on an essay-based application submitted by Finalists

  • Named one of 161 U.S. Presidential Scholars by the Department of Education, the highest honor a high school student can receive in the United States

Want proof? Here's what my students got:

  • Full tuition scholarship to NYU Shanghai, worth $71,500 a year

  • Full ride to NYU, housing included

  • Accepted to Penn, and to UC Berkeley with a Regents Scholarship

  • Accepted to Dartmouth, Cornell, Tufts, Bowdoin, UNC and UT

  • Accepted to Cornell ILR, plus $10K+ scholarships at UF and Indiana Kelley

  • Accepted to Rice

  • Accepted to Michigan, UCLA, UCSD, Emory and Vanderbilt with the Crescere Aude Scholarship

  • Accepted to West Point

  • Accepted to the University of Pittsburgh with a 3.18 GPA, which the student called a reach, and she believes her essay is what got her in

Are you ready to make the process simple and effective?

After coaching 1,000+ students through this process, I know how overwhelming it feels to wonder whether your essays are good enough.

By the time we are done, you will not have to wonder. Your Common App essay will be polished, purposeful, and ready to submit. You will know it is done and it is good.

That is the peace of mind I would love to give you.

I was pleased with what my daughter and Avigail were able to create together. My daughter had no idea how to start her essay, but now she has multiple drafts written, and I'm happy with the way that each of them advertises the extracurriculars she's worked so hard on during her high school years. I'm impressed by how wise and professional Avigail. We would definitely recommend her services to other families looking to figure out the essay-writing process!

each of our 3 sessions was very helpful. she first helped me come up with an idea for what to write my essay about after i told her about some of my interests and clubs, and then we built and edited the essay in the other two sessions. she did some extra work beforehand too making edits to my essay and came prepared to each call. ty!
