APPLICATION ESSAY BUILDING AND EDITING

Build an essay that leaves them wanting more

In our experience, the general advice academic applicants receive about their essays boils down to one thing: impress them.

​

Unfortunately, applicants who are hellbent on proving their impressiveness end up creating essays that prioritize quantity over quality, have no discernible narrative, and are completely devoid of personality. When this happens, the traits and experiences that make these applicants truly impressive get completely lost.

​

At Eloquate, we take a different approach. We know that our clients are impressive, and we believe that anyone who has the pleasure of getting to know them will recognize that fact. So, we refocus our applicants on a less daunting goal: help them get to know you.

Simple as it may seem, we have found that this shift in thinking results in essays that are focused, dynamic, and attention-grabbing. Like a good first date, these are the essays that make admissions committees sit up straight and want to get to know applicants better.

​

Those are the applicants who stand out, and those are the applicants who get in.
