Maybe you’ve already drafted a college essay in school. Maybe you want to get started. In this generative class, Hillside Founder Allan Reeder shares what makes an essay resonate in an admissions officer’s mind and offers practical steps toward writing your authentic, memorable essay. Bring a notebook and we’ll write together. You’ll leave with ideas and directions to build on before school is back in session. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to attend and participate.
