Easier College Essays + Admissions

I'm Christy, mom of six and founder of Easier College Essays + Admissions.

Thirteen years and 400+ families later, I help seniors write a Personal Statement that sounds like them and get through admissions, so it's done, done right, and off your plate.

I get it. It's a tender time for a lot of mamas right now…

I’ve talked with two different students about Rice University over the past few weeks, and when I went to share this video with them, I realized I’d never actually posted it!

So… here it is. :blush: A few things I loved and noticed during my campus visit to Rice University.

The smartest seniors sometimes have the most self doubt and questions. Others just want clear direction step by step. Here are stories from behind the scenes with both types...

A mom sat across from me last week — we were on a Zoom call. (And I’m sharing this snippet of our conversation with her blessing).

She'd read her daughter's essay, written in my last cohort. Before she said a word to her daughter, she wanted my take first.

"Is it too much?" she asked. "Too vulnerable? Is it even the right story?"

And here’s what I love about my work: I'm not just supporting the student. I'm supporting the whole family through this process — and conversations like this one are exactly why.

I have an answer for this mom. Now you’ll know too.

We're halfway through summer. Two spots left for this weekend's cohort, and yes, they include a 30-minute parent conversation too.

An older sister asked me last week, on behalf of her parents (their family immigrated to the U.S. a decade ago), "Where do your students actually get in?"

Private and public schools. Business schools, engineering schools, medical and nursing schools. All across the country, and even a few internationally, too.

Here's why that range is possible: the Personal Statement is the Queen Bee of the essays. It goes to almost every school on a student’s list. So we start there.

And worth realizing: High schools don't typically teach this kind of writing. That's not a knock on the schools. The state tests don't test for it, so there's no reason it'd be in the curriculum. Which means most students and families are figuring this out completely on their own.

That's the gap I'm closing.

In the workshop, and in the Cheat Sheet I send students home with, I teach the actual craft of storytelling — sensory language, transition statements, words to avoid, and how to edit their own work. Not just for this essay. For every essay that comes after it. Supplementals. Scholarship essays. Whatever's next.

If you're looking for highly personalized essay support that actually moves the needle, I'd love to help.
✨ Over 300 essays guided, one-on-one and in workshops
✨ Scholarships are often part of the outcome
✨ Many families return with younger siblings once they’re juniors (I’ve got two this weekend!)
✨ A 2-day workshop that takes a teen from draft to a finished Personal Statement — plus a cheat sheet they'll use for every essay after
✨ In person (Charlotte area) or live on Zoom — same process, same support

If you'd like to hear how the workshop works and whether it's the right fit for your teen, let's grab 20 minutes. I'll answer everything you're wondering about.

I make the essay process simpler — and a whole lot less stressful.

07/07/2026

Most students writing at home, from the kitchen counter or lounging on the living room sofa, never even consider writing a second draft. It doesn't occur to them.

But here's what I've learned after supporting over 300 students in writing their personal statements: a second draft is the secret sauce, it’s where the magic happens. Going slower gets seniors to their ultimate goal faster. As they let the ideas simmer, the flavor gets better.

So I build it in. Every senior writes that first draft FAST, getting down just enough to know if their topic works.

Then we talk.

If it's not, we identify a better topic and they start over — from scratch. And the beauty is, they’re not behind. Because every other student also starts from scratch for Round 2.

About 19% of my students need a restart before they find what really works. And it’s not a setback. It’s the recipe working exactly as it should.

This is just one thing I do during the Complete Your Essay in a Weekend workshop that I know students are doing at home, on their own.

The right structure to write this essay makes a huge difference in the outcome.
As of this morning: 2 spots left for July 11–12. In person or online.

POV: You’re the parent of a rising senior…

And somehow it’s suddenly the end of July.

The Common App essay is still:

“Untitled Document”

Your student has:

- worked/travelled/hung out with friends

- watched college dorm tours

- color-coded their planner

- talked about starting the essay 847 times

…but still hasn’t started.

Deep breath, friend. 💛

This is exactly why I created Complete Your Essay in a Weekend.

A supportive, structured workshop where students stop thinking about the essay and get. it. done.

In just one weekend, students walk away with:

✨ answers

✨ a clear topic (that’s been Christy-approved based on my work on over 3K other essays)

✨ confidence

✨ tools & know-how to write the essay requires

✨ and a completed draft (and time on the calendar to finalize things with my help)

Upcoming workshop dates:

📍July 11-12 - slots available

Your student does NOT need to figure out the perfect topic.

They do NOT need to be “good at essays.”

They just need a place to begin.

And I’d love to help with that.

Wait… students are finishing their college essay in ONE weekend?

It sounds a little fake until you see what actually happens inside the workshop.

Because no, students don’t show up Saturday morning magically ready to write a perfect essay while inspirational music plays softly in the background.

Instead…

A few days before the workshop, they start digging for stories through guided exercises.

On Saturday, we spend the first 90 minutes NOT writing.

We talk.
We brainstorm.
We pull students out of the overthinking spiral.

You know the one:
“I hate all my ideas.”
“What if this topic is dumb?”
“What if someone else already wrote this?”

By Saturday afternoon, students hear themselves differently.
Stories surface.
Connections click.
Confidence builds.

And by the end of Sunday?

They’re tired.
Proud.
Slightly crispy.
And holding a draft they feel genuinely good about (in part because they know WHY it’s good).

THIS is what happens inside Complete Your Essay in a Weekend.

Upcoming workshop dates:
📍 June 27–28
📍 July 11-12

If you’ve been wondering how students can possibly finish a college-admissions-worthy essay in one weekend…

She told me she was done taking the ACT.

I told her that was a big, hairy mistake.

Here’s why.
What a student or family doesn’t know can cost them a hundred thousand dollars in college tuition.
And I hate that.

It’s why I talk test scores, GPA, major, and school choice with families every week.
