ACCEPTional Essays is back in business!

GPAs, class rank, SAT and ACT scores. The components of your college application are mostly numbers. But do they really tell the story of YOU?
Your college essay is your opportunity to tell your story and to show your desired college who you really are. A powerful college essay will cause admissions officers to sit up and take notice, as they learn about you through vivid storytelling, self-reflection, and the experiences that have shaped who you are.
Writer and teacher Lisa Manheim will coach you through this process, as together you produce an essay--in your voice-- that will pop out of the pack. She is available to help with all aspects of the writing process, from brainstorming the perfect topic to revising and editing until the finished product is as unique as you are.
Email Lisa at acceptionalessays@gmail.com with any questions or to set up a phone call.
*This service is completely contactless! We use Zoom, Google Chat, and Google Docs to facilitate our work together.
