|
APPLICATION REVIEW: $50 first person edit, $25 second edit We know that sometimes it is helpful to have more people look at an application. If you would like more attention on your application, this session is structured as a special two-on-one application review where two of our consultants will read and edit your application.

This is why with our transparent system, we charge by the edit so you can feel comfortable knowing exactly what you are getting. |

PERSONAL STATEMENT A LA CARTE EDITING: $25/edit per essay The process of suggesting improvements and refining the personal statement is lengthy, so additional edits to the personal statement are priced lower to help you get the best outcome possible.
