Essay Help
PACE's Essay Help service provides focused support for students with the written elements of the college application. It is designed for students who are primarily self-directed in their college search but want expert guidance on crafting essays that are authentic, compelling, and written in their own voice.
The college essay is the one place in an application where a student's personality, perspective, and voice can come through directly — beyond grades, test scores, and activities. Rebecca Putter works with students to find their story and develop it into writing that resonates with admissions readers.
Standard Essay Package includes:
-
A brainstorming session to help students find their best stories and identify their strongest personal statement topic
-
Two rounds of content feedback on drafts, with guidance on structure, voice, and authenticity
-
A final proof from PACE's professional editing team
Essay Package Lite includes:
-
One round of content feedback on the student's existing essay
-
A final proof from PACE's professional editing team
Essay Help is best suited for students in grades 11–12 who have a handle on their college list and application strategy but want a skilled reader and coach for the writing process. Students who need broader application support may want to explore PACE's Complete Admissions or Premier Admissions programs.
To get started, contact Rebecca directly or book through the PACE website.
"Rebecca talked me through essay ideas, how and what to send to colleges, and writing my resume, and on top of it all, she was enthusiastic about it the whole time."
