Hi folks! I'm in the process of polishing my college essays and I'm on a tight budget. Does anyone know places where I can get reliable feedback on my essays for free? I want to make sure they're as strong as possible before submission.
Hello there! It's wonderful that you're taking the time to refine your college essays. A great place to start looking for free essay review resources would be your high school's writing center or English department, if available. Often, there are teachers or volunteers who can offer insightful feedback on college application essays. Don't overlook your peers, too—sometimes, a fellow student can provide a fresh perspective, especially if they've already gone through the process themselves.
Additionally, many public libraries offer writing assistance as part of their educational outreach programs. Finally, I encourage you to investigate any local or online workshops for college admissions essays. These can often provide not only valuable feedback but also an opportunity to learn what colleges are seeking in a candidate. Good luck with your essays!
