Supplemental Essay Guidance
Some colleges require one supplemental essay. Others request multiple. Often, the short answer questions are more challenging to write and require more rounds of revisions than the main essay.
There’s a bit of a learning curve to writing these supplemental essays, but we've discovered that after creating a few, most of our students master how to write them and don't need so much guidance —sometimes just 10 minute feedback emails.
Because supplements vary substantially in word count and difficulty, our Supplemental Essay Guidance is billed by the hour at $250/hour.
