Connor Long

Hey all! My name is Connor, and I graduated from a public high school and now study Chemical and Biological Engineering at Princeton University. I was also admitted to West Point and the U.S. Naval Academy and earned a four-year Army ROTC scholarship. Going through several application processes and later working with high school students going through the process themselves gave me experience with building a choosing a major, college list, writing essays, and weighing offers. Additionally, as someone pursuing 3 minors, working in research and getting an article published to Nature, and finding an engineering internship, I'm willing to help guide students through college life after applications too. I want to help students plan their applications, brainstorm personal statements and supplemental essays, choose schools and majors that match the student's interest, and describe their activities in a way that shows what they actually did and why it mattered to them. I especially enjoy helping public school students see what’s worth sharing from their own experience, whether that’s a job, a family responsibility, a school club, experience, or a project they pursued on their own. I’ll give you specific feedback on your drafts and help you tell your story in your own voice. I'm looking forward to chatting!
