You thought there was one essay. There isn't.
Every college requires a Personal Statement — the 650-word essay you've heard about. But for every school above that, your student needs 2 to 7 additional essays called supplemental essays. And those are unique to each school. So the total number of essays your student needs to write is not one. Here's what it actually looks like:
| Application Profile | Estimated Total Essays |
|---|---|
| Focused list of state/flagship schools (UCs, UT, U Michigan) | 8 – 18 essays |
| Mix of flagship public + selective private colleges | 18 – 38 essays |
| Top Ivy + Top 25 + Top 50 (high-volume list) Elite | 38 – 68 essays |
The Elite Package is built for the family whose student is applying to highly selective schools — Ivies, Top 25, and Top 50 — where the volume and quality of essays can make or break an admission decision. This is where professional editing and a dedicated coach become essential, not optional.
Everything in the Elite Package
Five days at Essay Camp — plus a full season of dedicated coaching, professional editing, and accountability from start to submission.

10 Application Reviews
Full application reviews before submission — every section reviewed, every essay checked, every detail confirmed. Nothing slips through.
The Signature Core Four™
Four essay types become the foundation of your student's entire application — repurposed strategically across every school on their list.
Who Am I?
The personal statement — your student's most important piece of writing. Brings their full character to life in 650 words.
What Am I Good At?
The activity or skill essay — turns a resume bullet point into a story about what your student is actually capable of.
What's Unique About Me?
The differentiator — the thing no one else in the pile can say. This is often the essay that makes an admissions officer stop scrolling.
Why This Major?
For students with a clear direction — this essay signals commitment and intellectual maturity. One of the most commonly required supplementals.
The Elite advantage
In Elite, these four essays don't just get written — they get professionally edited, strategically aligned with each school, and reviewed before every submission. A student applying to 15–20 schools leaves with a complete, polished, submission-ready application package.

What Elite Families Say
Students who came in with blank pages left with done essays — and a coach in their corner all season long.
Essay Bootcamp helped each of my daughters — who are very different — bring their stories to life and gain clarity in the process. After five days, they had more than enough essays for supplements and were accepted to their top colleges with incredible scholarships.
Using Dr. C's method, Adrian curated 8 essays and repurposed them for a total of 66 essays for 18 applications. Essays were the hardest part — and in camp he drafted ideas, gained expert advice, and crafted authentic and memorable essays.
My sons are strong in math and science, but I knew essays would be a hurdle. Bootcamp exceeded all expectations. The boys wrote essays that truly reflected who they are. The coaches pulled the best out of them and gave them tools to keep writing with confidence even after class ended.

Elite includes everything in the Signature Package — the 5-Day Essay Camp, on-demand video library, and live group coaching — plus a personalized application strategy session, professional editing on the Personal Statement and 6 supplemental essays, ongoing progress checkpoints throughout the season, and 10 full application reviews before submission. It is designed for families applying to highly selective schools who want expert support from start to finish.
Your student is assigned a personal essay coach for all five days of camp. That coach reads every essay your student writes, gives daily feedback, and works with them one-on-one in a group setting — meaning it's structured like 1-on-1 coaching inside the energy of a group environment. It is not a lecture. Your student is writing, revising, and getting real feedback every day.
Most students complete 3–5 polished essays during the 5 days — the Signature Core Four™ plus their personal statement. In Elite, these essays are then professionally edited and strategically aligned with each school on your student's list. A student applying to 15–20 schools will have the core they need to complete every application — with expert editing on every key piece.
Yes — Elite is specifically designed for students targeting Ivies, Top 25, and Top 50 schools who will need 38–68 total essays across their application list. The professional editing, personalized strategy, and 10 application reviews are built for the volume and quality demands of highly selective admissions. If your student's list is focused on flagship public universities, the Signature Package may be the right fit instead.
Elite includes scheduled accountability touchpoints throughout the application season — from camp through submission deadlines. These checkpoints ensure your student is on track with essays, supplements, applications, and deadlines. Nothing falls through the cracks, and your student always knows what needs to happen next.
Yes. Every Essay Camp date is available via Zoom from anywhere in the country. Select dates also offer in-person options in Northern California, Manhattan Beach, Orange County, and New York City. The virtual experience is equally effective — Dr. C has been running live virtual programs since before Zoom was a verb.
All sessions are recorded and you have full access to replays anytime. You'll never miss the content even if your student can't attend live.
Your student has one shot at this application season. Make sure they have the right team behind them.
From Essay Camp to final submission — a dedicated expert in their corner, every step of the way.
