Edge out the competition with a head start on college applications

My admissions boot camp helps high school seniors create world-class college applications, with the goal of completing at least four applications before Early Decision deadlines.

What's included?

My standard boot camp includes connecting with the student multiple times per week, with "homework" for students between contacts. Most families choose to meet with me 1 to 3 times per week at first, with the frequency scaling down toward the end of the application season. However, the service is unlimited and I will meet as often as your student needs.I can help your student:- Identify target schools
- Craft a strategic personal narrative with powerful, unique takeaway points
- Develop and stick to an application completion schedule
- Tailor their applications to their top-choice schoolsAs students complete their essay drafts, the boot camp also includes unlimited edits and feedback by email between sessions.I use this structure because in my 12 years of experience, I have found that twice-weekly sync-ups + remote support work best for most students.However, I understand that every student is unique, and I will work with your family to design a schedule and action plan that works best for you.

Why Work With Me?

My coaching and editing career started when I graduated cum laude from Harvard College in 2012, where I concentrated in English.

I completed my MFA in nonfiction writing at the University of Pittsburgh in 2018, and I've spent a total of twelve years helping students get into their top-choice schools. I've helped high school students from around the United States and the world get accepted to Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, Brown, the University of Pennsylvania, UChicago, and other top universities.

Why enroll?

Have polished, complete applications in time for Early Decision and scholarship deadlines

Every year, thousands of students miss out on the admissions advantages and scholarships available to those who apply early. I can help your student take full advantage of the summer to seize this opportunity.With most of their application essay material complete before their senior year, my students can devote their full attention to classes, extracurriculars, and the SAT/ACT while their classmates are still scrambling to meet deadlines.

Unlimited service

My boot camp package comes with unlimited consultations and essay feedback for 90 days, with an optional add-on to support your student all the way up to the January 1 deadlines.Please note that I'll be abroad for much of 2024. Zoom consultations are subject to availability, which may be very limited in US time zones. You can expect fast turnaround for asynchronous essay advice, and many students prefer this approach!

Flexibility to accommodate your student's schedule

High-achieving students have busy summers, and no one understands that better than me. I am happy to design a bespoke action plan to meet your students' needs. I have worked with students on intensive 2-3 week timelines, timelines with large gaps to accommodate other activities, and even by email only.

I've mastered the art and science of admissions

I've helped high school students from around the United States and the world get accepted to Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, Brown, the University of Pennsylvania, UChicago, and other top universities.

100% ethical assistance

My students produce exceptional applications that are fully their own. I firmly believe that no one can speak for your student as powerfully as they can speak for themselves, so I work hard to support them as they produce original work they can be proud of.

Thanks to Abigail, I have been accepted into Stanford and Yale! Beyond giving spot-on feedback and providing specific edits, Abigail inspires me to find my authentic voice in my essays and helps me translate my thoughts into eloquent words. If you work with Abigail, there's no doubt that she will make your application essays stand out and be unique to you. She is sincere, supportive, responsible, and readily available to help. I would 100% recommend Abigail for anyone applying to colleges or looking to polish their writing skills!

I am so lucky to have Abigail help my daughter, Christy, during her application process. Abigail is a great mentor and always made herself available when we need help. She provided invaluable advice and recommendations on my daughter's essays. An exceptional writer and adviser, Abigail always inspired Christy to push her essays to the next level. I am so happy we received Abigail's help throughout the process, and that led my daughter to a successful path. I will recommend Abigail's services to anyone without any hesitation.

Having Abigail as an editor is simply the best feeling. She's someone who will not only understand your most esoteric puns and literary references but even comes up with suggestions or improvements in the most unexpected of situations. You can rely on her as an adept, creative mind; as a trustworthy, experienced editor; or even just a second voice when you're faced with a difficult decision. Whether it's polishing essays or advising you on critical writing decisions, choosing Abigail makes the college application process a whole lot less stressful, and you can be sure you're putting out the best version of yourself possible.

- M. T., admitted to princeton university and yale university

College application is a process with so many nuances; one has to experience it to know how much is involved and what is at stake. Abigail's qualifications are top-notch. The Zoom sessions worked well; she is always available, kind and patient. I appreciate Abigail's dedication through out the application cycle, especially during the rush towards the finish line. I feel fortunate that my child had Abigail as adviser; her judgement is what we trust and rely on. A true professional, she is the best of the best.
