College Application Essays

Application essays are unlike any essays a student has written during high school. Students are asked to articulate their strengths, signifigant accomplishments, or future contributions--and somehow they must make these topics entertaining. Not a simple task, but we can help.

Debora Demarest, our essay specialist, has a strong writing background founded on a journalism internship at The New York Times and employment as a health/science/fitness editor for Hearst Publications, including Good Housekeeping Magazine. She has also created memorable brand identities for consumer products such as California Raisins, Amtrak and Grey Poupon.

Under the professional guidance of Debora, students will learn to channel their stories into powerful essays and land coveted spots at the most selective colleges and universities. Students generally meet with Debora for 8 hours or more.

"It was great having my son, Christopher (Cathedral Catholic H.S. - 2011 - admitted to Villanova University - 2015) work with Debora - it took the stress out of the family household and Christopher had fun and learned a lot while writing his college admissions essays and supplements. An A+ to Hammer and Ms. Demarest for helping our family and son!"
