Description:

It's a new world out there with test-optional admission, the proliferation of supplements, and holistic review. And a long list of achievements isn't all that counts. Application essays take admission readers beyond the numbers to show who you are, how you think, and what you will add to the in-coming class. And looked at correctly, you will find you've done this before...many times.
The latest in a long line of guides to self-advocacy in writing, the 8th edition features: Strategies for all the essay and supplement questions Insight into how admission personnel evaluate essays Simple steps for successful drafts Revision strategies The right role of parents in the process Guidance for transfers, international students, veterans, and ex-pats Best practices and common mistakes Critiques of samples essays and supplement answers
McGinty's work as an English department chair at Millburn High School NJ, as an associate director of admission at Sarah Lawrence College NY, and as a University supervisor and writing instructor at Harvard University give this guide unique breadth and depth of expertise.
