Parents are welcome to attend with their student to get personalized and direct support with the Common Application. Each session is $175. Book a date and time and pay online.

Examples of what kind of support you will receive:

1. What belongs in the "Additional Information" section and what doesn't

2. Activities list

• Fitting meaningful involvement into the tight character limits per entry

• Deciding which 10 activities to include when students have more, and how to rank them

• Quantifying impact in vague roles ("member of club" vs. something with measurable outcomes)

3. Supplemental essays (school-specific)

• Many students end up writing 15–25 additional essays across schools

• "Why this school" essays requiring genuinely specific research

4. Reassurance regarding technical and formatting issues in the platform itself

5. Receive help managing and meeting application deadlines
