- Hey guys! I’ve been wanting to film this video for awhile because I think it’ll be VERY useful for everyone writing their college essays right now. After all, I try to cover all the tips that people don’t talk about in this video instead of just explaining the same advice everyone repeats. I hope this video is useful and comment down below if you’d like a part two!

Hey! It should be fixed now-let me know:)
When I apply your promo code it become in capital form and you give your promo code in small letter with first capital letter. But when I apply same as you write I am unable to write as you give your promo code

2. don't repeat information
3. resource) emile
4. don't force things
very helpful- I applied for January and I don't think I could've written a better essay after watching these helpful videos
Thanks Cecile!! I'm editing my Common App essay right now, so these tips are super helpful. I'd love to see a video about Brown's supplemental essays too!
Thanks for the suggestion:) glad this helped!
Love this channel! Thank you so much!
❤ very nice Cecile
Thank you. Great recommendations! What do you recommend for engineering application? Themes of essays... etc.. thank you
I was just curious if me being a Canadian student wanting to study in the US with parents that immigrated from Europe classifies me as a first-generation American student (thereby being eligible for the Notable Narrative program)?
I have already taken the grade 12 final board exam, and my results have also been published. However, my official transcript will not be published by the examination board until November 15, and the university deadline is November 1. I am literally in trouble. what should I do? Please help me.
Hey Cecile. Thank you so much for your advice. I had a query regarding my College Essay Topic, that is "my growth from Alexithymia and Bend Down by the societal pressures, lack-of-confidence" to "have my own voice and identity, that is me as a Songwriter". I was thinking of how my cat (who sadly passed away in the 2021), helped me in doing this. What do u think about this topic?
I know this isn't direct to me but whatever ideas you got, just make it connect to one big theme that you want the reader to understand. Your topic is good, it is from your experience, a lot of people have what you have and the tricky part is making it connect together.
thank you so much! i really needed to hear these tips. do you still edit essays?
Hi, do you still edit essays?
Idk
hey can you read my essay?
Please how can you edit my essay for me

have you lied, stolen, used God's name in vain, or lusted after someone (which God sees as adultery)? if so, you have broken God's law, the ten commandments, and have sinned against God. The Bible says in Romans 6:23 that the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Put your trust in Jesus Christ, His death paid the debt for YOUR sins. Trust in Jesus, and He will give you eternal life, a free gift from God that can't be achieved or gotten by works!!
