From Summer Planning to Standout Essays.

Most students sit down to write their university essay in October with nothing real to say. The ones who get into top schools built their story months earlier. This webinar shows you exactly how.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

Secrets other counselors won't share.

The strongest university essays are built in the summer — through the experiences a student collects, the projects they pursue, and the choices they make months before anyone sits down to write.

01

Beyond Impressive Experiences

Why the best essays almost never come from the most impressive experiences.

02

Strategic Summer Planning

How to use the summer to build material that shows up across your entire application.

03

What Officers Look For

What admissions officers at top US and UK universities actually value in an applicant.

04

The Hong Kong Edge

The specific activities, projects and approaches that give Hong Kong students a real edge.

WHAT MOST FAMILIES DON'T KNOW

By the time most families start thinking about essays, the material is already either there or it isn't.

A counselor can only do so much with nothing to work with. Whether your child is in Year 10 with two summers ahead, or Year 12 with one left, there is still time to do something meaningful with it.

This webinar changes that.
