No-Stress College Application and Essay Coaching

My daughter and I set a goal to have all college/Common App essays completed by the end of the summer leading into senior year. Getting a kid to sit down, focus, and put the time and energy into writing thoughtful essays during the summer is no easy task, but Michelle helped set a timeline and it likely wouldn’t have happened without her support! Together they stuck to the deadlines they set, brainstormed, and created multiple essays I know my daughter felt very proud of. Michelle knows her audience and is engaging, fun, yet also tough when necessary. I will be recommending her to friends with rising seniors and highly recommend her to all of you checking out her website. Thank you, Michelle!

Michelle has been phenomenal to work with. I am applying to medical schools for the 2025 application cycle and with her help I have crafted well-thought-out responses to every secondary application that I have received. Where Michelle really shines is after you work with her for a month or two and you really get to know each other. After that, it feels more like a friendship. Her writing style is fantastic and as long as you can provide enough information, she can help you craft an incredibly strong response to anything. Michelle truly cares about her clients and this is shown when she goes above and beyond for them. I can text her at any time at a reasonable hour and I can expect a response within the next 30 minutes. She is willing to sit down and review work almost any day and I cant wait to see where I get into with her help!

"I learned so much from the teacher. I actually enjoyed the Bootcamp. My mom couldn’t believe I was the first one there in the morning, because classes were at nine o’clock. At first, I really, really wanted to go to the University of Delaware, but then my essay turned out so good that I applied to Maryland—and got in!"

"Going into the application process, I looked at my essay questions with disbelief, confusion and stress–I could not understand how they could possibly get done not only on time, but well. My mom told me she had scheduled an appointment with a woman who helps out applicants, and I was a bit hesitant at first. When we first saw her, I knew it was going to be good–she was friendly and cheery, but 'laid down the law' when I needed it. I don’t know what I would have done without her help!"

"I was extremely nervous to begin my personal essay. From the second I began brainstorming with Michelle, I felt comfortable and actually wanted to work on my essay. Whenever I felt stuck, Michelle helped in a way that pushed me to figure it out myself, while never letting me feel like I was in this alone. With her constant support and friendly energy, I was able to write an essay I am proud of and get into the business school of my dreams, the Ross School at the University of Michigan."
