Personal Statement Brainstorming, Advising & Editing: Get expert guidance and feedback from your coach on your personal statement. Find confidence in a narrative that effectively highlights your motivations, experiences, and aspirations. 5.

Letters of Recommendation: Strategize with your coach about choosing potential recommenders, making recommendation requests, and supporting recommenders so you can be sure you're getting strong letters of recommendation. 8. Secondaries Advising & Editing: Understand exactly what each school is looking for in their secondaries and get personalized advising support from your coach.
