Introduction to the Common Application Personal Statement

Wednesday, April 8, 2026
6-7pm

The personal statement is your primary college application essay, arguably the most important written component of your application. Every competitive school that offers a holistic applicant review process will tell you this essay is crucial. My class will provide a thorough introduction to the personal statement — what it is, what you really need to know about it, when to work on it, what to avoid, what to embrace, and what a successful PS looks like. This class will particularly benefit juniors in the spring who can begin working on this aspect of their applications in the summer; but all students and parents are welcome. Bring your questions! I love to answer them.
