Don't Sweat the Essay

(1 review)

Upper West Side

A niece of mine in England had her heart set on applying to a very selective American university;…read morethough she knew she needed help with her application essays, there was simply no one at her school familiar enough with the US system to offer much assistance. I consulted a friend of mine in New York whose daughtter had used Don't Sweat the Essay, and she raved about Liz. So after doing a bit of research about her qualifications, I introduced my niece to her via Skype. Initially, I felt slightly uneasy about the whole process going on without face-to-face contact, but I needn't have worried: Liz was just as marvelous as my friend had promised. She guided my niece calmly through two essays, the Common App essay and "Why do you want to attend this college?" and in the process actually helped her to clarify what really was important to her; she wound up writing things she could feel proud of. And yes, it worked: she was admitted early to the university of her choice. Thank you, Don't Sweat the Essay.

When they post reviews here, Yelp moves them down because they are not regular Yelpers. I have dozens of testimonials on my website, and I can refer you to individuals who have worked with me. If you are looking for a top tier tutor who can help you think creatively about your college and graduate school application essays, I'm available. Many students struggle with the Common Application essays. Others have to write a more general personal statement for grad school. Often applicants have to write supplemental essays on a wide range of topics. I don't write your essays - I help you figure out what you need to do and guide you through the process as painlessly as possible. I'm a bestselling novelist, author/editor of 10 books, and a former Ivy League writing professor. Early acceptances to Ivies, state schools, and everything in between.. I'm the author of dozens Huffington Post articles on the subject. My goal is to help students get into their 1st-choice schools, including law & medical schools, and have as many choices as possible. I have decades of experience working with young people in stressful writing situations. Please see testimonials on Don't Sweat The Essay website. EMAIL ME at Liz AT DontSweattheEssay.com. Please DO NOT write me through Yelp.

Working with the Opus team was one of the best investments we made in our daughter's future. From…read moreour very first consultation, it was clear we were in expert hands. They took the time to truly understand who she was -- her strengths, her passions, her quirks -- and helped her craft an application that felt authentic and personal. The guidance throughout the process was exceptional. Every deadline was anticipated, every essay went through thoughtful, constructive rounds of feedback, and every school on her list was chosen with real strategic intent. When anxiety crept in (and it did), our consultants were calm, reassuring, and always available. Our daughter was admitted to her first-choice school -- a university that felt like a reach -- along with three other outstanding offers. But beyond the results, she walked away from the process feeling confident and proud of the story she told. That, to us, is priceless. If you're on the fence about working with an educational consultant, stop deliberating. This team is the real deal.

I started my college application journey with Opus College Prep my sophomore year of high school…read moreand I am glad I chose their services. My consultant, Sylvia Vukos, did an exceptional job providing me with all the resources I needed to be successful. When I started I knew next to nothing about the college admissions process and she guided me through all of its complexities from dealing with the common app portal to interview prep and resume-building. She helped me with all my applications to the UCs, UPenn (Wharton), and Stanford. She did a great job outlining what each particular college looks for in their students, which Majors would dramatically boost my chances of acceptance. I got expert guidance from their writing coaches for my essays. With Opus College Prep's invaluable help, I was admitted to all of the schools listed above. I couldn't be happier. I want to take a moment to thank you for being a great coach to our son on this journey. We really appreciate the guidance you have provided throughout this process and countless hours spent to refine the essays & Apps to near-perfection. He thoroughly enjoyed working with you and he was super motivated after every meeting he had with you to continue and better his college applications. I strongly think we have presented the best possible profile for his case and you are instrumental in making this happen. I really want to thank you for staying patient with us (anxious parents), for inspiring our son, and keeping him motivated in this long process.
