College Essay Retreat
Is your student applying to college? Are you confident they will get the personalized, expert support required to produce a quality college essay? Would they benefit from expert guidance on their Personal Statement/Common Application essay? Do you want your student to start senior year with their college essay completed? Join us for a two-day College Essay Writing Retreat.
From understanding what the personal statement is and what it is not to tapping into personal values and motivators to produce authentic and quality essays, students will engage in lessons and activities created and delivered by highly qualified and experienced College Admissions Counselor Kathy Griswold Fine, Ph.D.. Importantly, students will leave the retreat confident they have a solid foundation and essay draft.
During this intensive two-day retreat, students will learn about the role of the Personal Statement/Common Application essay in the college admissions process. Additionally, they will hear from Vanderbilt Director of Admissions Jennifer Shaughnessy about what colleges are looking for. Finally, students will work through a series of structured lessons and activities designed to culminate in a comprehensive outline and/or essay draft.
Dates: June 6th & 7th
Time: 10:00am – 4:00pm
Location: Atlanta – In Person
“Working with Kathy Fine on my college process was the best decision for me. With my unique learning style, she really helped me focus on a specific topic by helping me organize my thoughts so that I could write a really strong essay. Throughout the whole process, she was understanding, helpful, super nice, and gave me all of the support I needed. Even though we worked virtually, we have a great connection and I feel like we know each other very well. I 100% recommend Kathy to help with the college applications process and I could not have done it without her!”
