Finally, a Way to Take the Stress Out of the College Essay Process.

I hear it all the time. You want your child to have a strong college essay but don't want the fights and tension that go along with the essay writing process. Whether you've been through college applications before, or this is your first time, there is no question it can be one of the most anxiety-provoking periods of your and your child's life. Adding to that stress is the awareness that a memorable essay can make all the difference when final admissions decisions are made.

Stop the Stressors!
Research shows the most significant stressors for students are being unsure of what to write about, feeling like they won't do a good enough job, or can't figure out the right topic. And parents are don't want to constantly fight with their kids, worry that they won't stay on schedule, or have a college-worthy essay. By the time we finish, your child will feel calmer, more confident, and have the tools to write an essay that will stand out so they can get in.

"Should I write about the home-run I scored in the last game of the season?
 List the courses and internships I've taken to pursue premed?"

Honestly, probably not, because they don't really tell anything about who you are. It may seem like your essay needs to be about some harrowing event in your life or some remarkable achievement, but in reality, some of the best essays come from a seemingly mundane aspect of your life that actually reveals a lot about you.

While there are very few original topics out there, you are an original, and you're going to learn to write an essay that shows admissions officers why you're the perfect fit. Our brainstorming session will identify remarkable insights about what makes you tick so you can write an essay that is both uncommon and memorable.

Hi, I'm Betsy Cadel, Founder and primary stress-buster of College Essay Helpers.

First of all, I feel your pain. It was only a few years ago I was going through the application process with my son. I was thrilled he got into his first-choice school, but the months of arguments and stress leading up to it were brutal and unnecessary.

This is why I started College Essay Helpers. The biggest trick to reducing stress is getting started early.

The best thing you can do is to have a solid draft of the personal statement completed by the end of the summer before senior year starts when you're juggling a challenging course load, testing, college visits, extracurriculars, and the application process. But don't worry, if you're not there yet (or haven't started), there's still time as long as we get started right now.

Our goal is to make sure you feel confident and proud of the final essay you submit to the admissions officers. The added bonus is you will become a better writer, which will be a critical skill for the rest of your life.
