Expert College Essay Help


Getting into college is tougher than ever. A strong transcript gets your foot in the door, but it’s the rest of your application — extracurriculars, test scores, recommendations, and your essays — that moves you to the front of the line.

Yet crafting great college essays is hard. Authentic, personal narrative is not the kind of writing usually taught in school.

Eric Tipler has spent the past twenty years successfully working with teenagers as a teacher, essay coach, and college admissions counselor. In Write Yourself In, Eric shares his unique method that empowers teens to tell their authentic stories in ways that resonate with admissions officers. And it works: his students have been admitted to the country’s most selective colleges and universities, including all eight Ivy League schools.

A nationally-recognized expert on college admissions, Eric holds degrees from Harvard and Yale, is regularly quoted in media such as The Wall Street Journal and Parents magazine, and is a member of the National Association for College Admission Counseling.
