US College Admissions Essays
(Grade 12)
At a Glance (2022-2023)
It is that time of year. SAT/ACT ✓ . Extracurricular activities with a sizable number of awards and prizes ✓. GPA ✓. Well, looks like all that is left for you before knocking at the college door is to ace those application essays for admission. Unlike SAT or GPA, a college application essay is designed to reveal genuine, unique stories about an applicant, not to assign any numeric or letter-like value attached to a piece of writing. In essence, the purpose of application essays is for admission officers to indirectly get to know who you really are as an individual and a potential student in order to determine whether you are a great fit for a specific school to which you are applying. Are you ready to dazzle the officers with your uniquely tailored stories?
With a team of top-tier consultants from J&B, you can craft the essays that most uniquely represent you and win the hearts of the admission officers! Whether your academic background lies in STEM or English Literature, or whether your dream school is Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT or Brown, our expertly consultants help guiding you through each step of the personalized consulting program to ensure you gain confidence, craft the very best writing piece and get the desired results.
