We offered this session this past week through Zoom and we had such a great response, we decided to redo it as a Facebook Live!

Not only are more and more schools going SAT/ACT optional, but as a result of the pandemic, test cancellations have made it difficult for students to meet traditional application requirements.
Colleges will now be looking more closely at both GPA and your student’s ESSAYS to get a better sense of who they are, and to assess their college readiness.
During the Facebook Live, we'll focus on:
- Topics to avoid
- Essay content & style tips
- Whether to write about your COVID-19 experiences
- Tips on how to structure your essays
- Tips on how to edit and polish your essays
- How to overcome essay anxiety (it’s real!)
- How to know when your essay is ready to send
- The differences between: the main essay, the personal statement, and supplemental essays
Parents, don’t miss this opportunity to help your student find and hone the right essay topic.
Bring your questions, your teens, and their essay ideas!
Feel free to send your essay ideas or essay drafts in advance to: Debbie@road2college.com. We’ll be picking a few to use (anonymously) as examples during the Facebook Live.
Please send any essay drafts by Sunday at 12pm EST.
