College Essay Writing Workshop:

Do you know a current high school junior? Tell them and their family to join Fletcher Free Library and Summit Academic Support for our free Intro to the College Essay Workshops!

Join us at 7pm at either or both of our two sessions: virtually on Tuesday May 20, and/or in person at Fletcher Free's New North End branch on Tuesday June 3.

Maggie & Jacklyn from Summit Academic Support will provide a comprehensive overview of college essay requirements and the essay writing process. We will review the purpose and audience of the essay, what not to do, as well as a suggested timeline for completion (Spoiler: the answer is this summer!) Students will review standout sample essays with insights into what made them stand out to admissions officers.

All attendees are welcome, from the students themselves, to just caregivers, to the whole family. Don’t miss this opportunity to start your college essay with expert guidance!

Registration required.

Registrants for our online session will receive a recording of the session via email - if you already know you can't make it, feel free to register anyway to receive the recording.
