Which Package Should I Choose?
Get a feel for how many applications you’ll submit.
Your school list may not be complete yet – and that’s okay. Having a sense of how many applications you’ll be submitting will help you select a package.
Typically speaking, high-achieving students targeting more selective colleges (25% or lower admit rates) apply to an average of 12 colleges – but an increasing number apply to 15-20+.
Students targeting less selective colleges (50% or higher admit rates) typically apply to 5 or fewer. Everyone else is in between.
Get a feel for where your essays will matter.
As a rule of thumb, the lower a college’s admit rate, the more essays matter. Selective colleges use essays to differentiate between tens of thousands of academically similar applicants.
We recommend getting coaching on your applications where your essays matter the most, which typically are:
Selective Colleges
Ivy and Ivy-equivalent, prestigious private colleges (Boston University, USC, NYU), competitive public colleges (UNC, Michigan, UCLA).
Selective majors and programs at less selective colleges
Often, some majors and programs have lower admit rates than the college as a whole. Common examples include computer science, engineering, nursing, business, and honors colleges.
Desirable out-of-state public colleges
Often, out-of-state applicants have lower admit rates than in-state (UT Austin, UVA, Florida).
Choose the right approach for you.
Here’s 3 approaches you can take to choose the right package for you.
Simple approach (recommended)
Get the package that matches the number of selective colleges, majors, and programs you’ll be applying to. This typically means an All Schools Package for high-achieving students likely to submit 12+ applications. It can also be our 3 Schools or 6 Schools Package for students only applying to a few reach colleges.
Top-choice approach
Only get coaching on your top choices with a 3 Schools or 1 School Package. You’ll spend less and get substantial value. You’ll then transfer what you learned to completing your other applications yourself.
Widespread approach
Get a Common App Essay Package to make sure you’re confident in the essay you submit to many colleges. Most college applications use the Common App personal statement essay.
Note: You can always upgrade your package later, but it may result in a higher price (e.g., prices increase in September).
