In this seminar, high school students will learn how to develop an effective essay for their college admission applications.

We will begin by exploring the importance of this process in order to better understand the features that make a successful essay.

Then, participants will go through the process of breaking down the prompts, brainstorming ideas, and writing a first draft.

Every participant will receive detailed feedback and suggestions for revisions to strengthen their final product.
