She is amazing. We have used her expertise for 4 applications including law school. My daughter would never apply to anything without her edits to her essays.

About this Gig
In a hurry? 24-hour delivery is available for all packages!
I have been a university professor for over 13 years and hold a PhD in English. As such, I have sat on admissions committees and read thousands of personal statements, letters of intent, and statements of purpose. I know what makes an application essay stand out from the crowd at every level (Bachelor's, Master's, Doctorate) and I'm excited to leverage this expertise to help improve your chances of getting accepted to the school of your dreams. Previous clients have been accepted to Princeton, Harvard, Oxford, MIT, UPenn, USC, and Cornell among many others.
My services include:
- Thorough proofreading: & editing: Reviewing grammar, syntax, tone, and structure to ensure your essay is clear and engaging.
- Making sure you still sound like you: Universities don't want cookie-cutter students, so I work hard to ensure your unique voice and best attributes shine through.
**NOTE: This is not a writing or full rewriting service; it's only for editing and providing feedback on your draft. Anything more than that violates Fiverr's Academic Services Policy. I also do not edit any work that has been written with or edited by AI.

FAQ
Will you edit my statement if I used AI to write it?
No, I do not offer editing for AI-generated content, and I make no promises to help you avoid AI detection in your work. You're not permitted to use it in the college application process, so you should not submit an AI-generated draft to me for editing.
What information do you need from me before editing?
Please provide 1) the full final draft of your application statement or essay with all of the information you want included within it; 2) any instructions/requirements (essay prompt/question, word count, etc.) provided by the university you're applying to; 3) your expectations for editing.
What does a revision include?
Revisions can be requested up to 3 days after delivery. They include minor editing (per your instruction) to the document that I deliver to you. Revisions do not include editing an entirely new document. One round of revision is included with each package. Additional rounds can be purchased.
Can you edit a college application recommendation letter?
If you have a full draft of the letter, I would be delighted to assist with this. I have experience both writing these letters for my own students and editing them for the many clients I have helped from all over the world. Please see my other gig for this service.
Can I combine multiple essays together to meet the word count?
Yes, you absolutely can. You benefit from a significant discount with the Standard and Premium packages, so I will happily allow you to submit multiple essays to reach the word count. Just make sure to include the separate prompts/instructions for each when ordering.
What if I need you to edit a different word count?
You can type your total word count into the "Compare Packages" section of this page to get an immediate price quote. Alternatively, please feel free to send me a message with the details/requirements of your project and I will create a custom offer for you!
Can you write/edit in UK English?
Yes, I have graduate degrees from both the US and UK and have published in both versions of English. Please just let me know if you have a preference when ordering and I'll be happy to accommodate this request.
Will you write the statement/essay for me?
Unfortunately, this is not an essay writing service, so I will not be able to do this for you. However, if you're willing to write a full draft, I would be more than happy to edit it for you to ensure it's perfect and ready for submission.
Are you available to edit other essays or documents?
Yes, I am happy to edit a statement of purpose (SOP), letter of intent (LOI), motivation letter, or any other university application document you need assistance with.
Can you provide a sample of your work?
Since providing a sample of my related work would involve potentially sharing my client's personal information, I do not believe it's morally right to do so. I hope that the hundreds of 5-star reviews I've received on Fiverr attest to the quality of my work and the value I bring to your project!

Amazing and very professional. Improved my essay for college admissions by a lot. The difference between the first draft and the last is night and day. Most definitely would recommend for a fast and premium service. Especially for a short essay that needs to make a big impact.
