Episode 069: Write Yourself In with Eric Tipler
Description
Eric Tipler has spent the past twenty years working with teenagers as a teacher, writing coach, and college admissions counselor. His students have attended the country’s top colleges and universities, including all eight Ivy League schools. Eric holds degrees from Harvard and Yale, and he is a member of the National Association for College Admission Counseling.
With admission rates at an all-time low, getting into a competitive college is tougher than ever. At the top schools, a strong transcript and test scores will get your foot in the door, but it’s your essays, and the personal qualities that they highlight, that will move your application to the top of the pile.
Yet it’s often hard to know where to start. Seasoned college admissions expert and educator Eric Tipler has seen this firsthand. In Write Yourself In Tipler, a former high school teacher, meets students where they are and shows them how to craft a winning essay: one that is authentic, vulnerable, and highlights traits like personal growth, intellectual curiosity, and emotional maturity.
