Virtual Summer 2021 College Essay Boot Camp 

In this four session virtual group summer Boot Camp, I will work with rising high school seniors to brainstorm, identify and develop a response to a Common Application Essay prompt that sparks self-inquiry, excellent writing, and contributes to the overall application.

The purpose of the Boot Camp is to create a clear, guided focus and space to complete outstanding essays that reflect who the applicant is and what they will add to the intellectual and social fabric of a campus. The goal is to have a strong draft of the Common Application Essay completed by the end of the Boot Camp. Supplemental essay camps and packages are also available.

Upcoming Webinars 2020

Dr. Carolyn Johnson is hosting an interactive webinar: “COVID-19: Navigating College Admissions for Parents of the Class of ’21.” In the absence of live campus tours, college fairs, SAT/ACT exams, sports seasons, tournaments, meetings with coaches, admissions visits to high schools and face to face interviews, students in the class of 2021 may fear they will miss out on gaining admission to their dream colleges. Hope is not lost. Join me to learn how you can support your student in the college application process in an unprecedented time.
