Proofreading of admission essays and statements

About this service

We proofread personal statements, statements of purpose, college application essays and scholarship letters. Admissions readers want to hear you, so we fix spelling, grammar and punctuation while keeping your words, your stories and your voice. We also check the essay against its word limit, such as 650 words for the Common App, and point out sentences that are unclear.
