How Ivy Gate can help you

We at Ivy Gate realize that writing the essay is arguably one of the most difficult and stressful parts of the college application process. Fortunately, the essay is also an area in which Ivy Gate consultants can make a tremendous difference and help students stand out from other qualified applicants. Ivy Gate consultants are experienced writers who have edited hundreds of college application essays and have produced successful essays themselves.

The process

At Ivy Gate, each essay is carefully reviewed and edited by several of such experienced consultants, offering multiple sources of feedback and catering to each student’s specific (and often college-specific) needs. Essays will typically be returned to students within 0-3 days.

Each consultant will make content, structural and stylistic edits for the essay. In addition to editing drafts, Ivy Gate consultants also help students brainstorm and develop potential essay topics.

Ivy Gate students also have access to a collection of more than 200 essays written by Hong Kong students.

More than just essay editing

Having been through the essay writing process recently, Ivy Gate consultants truly understand the difficulties and the opportunities that the essay entails. We view the essay writing process as more than just a component of the college application. It is an opportunity for students to reflect upon who they are, where they are headed, and what values and experiences mean the most to them. It is a soul-searching journey towards adulthood - and Ivy Gate consultants will be there to support and guide students every step of the way.
