Don't Miss College Essay Institute

Last month we launched our brand new College Essay Institute, a five-part webinar series for professionals who want to take their essay process to the next level. It was a great first session; about half the participants joined us live, while the other half will watch the webinar when it's convenient for them.

In addition to a lively discussion, we shared two valuable writing exercises, an article for parents, and a worksheet for evaluating and strengthening YOUR essay process.

If you haven't already signed up, you can still catch up. Register today, and we'll send you the recording and resources for the June 24 webinar, Listening 201: Elements of a Great Idea. Here's the rest of the schedule:

Early Drafts: Embracing the Messy Middle (7/22)
Dismantling the Scaffold: Dull Openings and Other Structural Problems (8/26)
Enough is Enough: Letting Go of the Imperfect Essay (9/23)
Planning Ahead: Insights, Exceptions and Applying What We've Learned (10/28)

Sessions run the fourth Tuesday of each month, noon-1:30 p.m. ET. Register for just $249 for the entire series.
