Every year college admissions officers read approximately 50,000 applications.
Over the last decade of teaching writing through Princeton University, I have discovered a number of creative writing strategies and scriptwriting structures that I apply to the college application. I take you through the whole process from brainstorming and drafting to editing and polishing the application for submission.
The goal of my boot camp packages is to coach students towards differentiating themselves and their application by utilizing uncommon topics, uncommon words, and uncommon insights.

1. Brainstorming Pre-Work is required prior to our initial session. This is how I learn all the details of who you are and what you are passionate about and that will be a part of your college application. I send you an onboarding email that includes your own folder with sample essays and resources to help you write the best possible college application.
2. We have an initial 90 minute session where we discuss, strategize topics, and outline essays for drafting. All sessions after are usually 60 minutes to coach, edit, and strategize essay writing strategies.
3. We continue revising until all drafts and the application (additional info, activities list, brag sheet) is complete.

Make sure they are aware of what college admissions are actually looking for - i.e. they go to conferences, listen to admissions panels and have a clear direction to take your essays which will give you the best chance of admittance.
This is my rule of thumb:
1. Uncommon Topics
2. Uncommon Language
3. Uncommon Connections
Additional Advice:
Make sure potential college consultants have a strategy for college esssay coaching and they aren't simply editing your essay from the English class / 5-paragraph essay model. They need to think in terms of utilizing storytelling techniques.
