Master's Application Packages

With the SOP Package, you’ll receive:

1. Up-front guidance and advising to save you “churn time.” You introduce yourself to your consultant via a questionnaire. After reviewing the questionnaire, your consultant meets with you via phone or video chat to get to know you better and discuss the best way to present you and your qualifications in your statement of purpose. During this brainstorming session, you will discuss a core idea, seminal experiences to include in the statement of purpose, and a structure for the statement of purpose.
2. An outline for your essay based on your responses in the questionnaire and the brainstorming session. The outline consists of prompts and bullet points. It is NOT a draft. Clients say that the conversation and the outline give them the direction they need to write, save time, and ultimately produce a superior final result.
3. SOP editing. Your consultant checks your essay for clarity, grammar, style, spelling, and word usage. They then send you drafts with suggested corrections. You revise it and send it back. You then go back and forth editing and revising this statement of purpose until you are happy with it. Most statements of purpose benefit from 2-4 reviews.

The Statement of Purpose Package will give you the confidence of knowing you are submitting a strong statement of purpose that provides a compelling argument for your acceptance.

One SOP Package provides all the editing and consulting you need for ONE essay at ONE school or at ONE application service. We’re happy to help with additional essays too. However, using our assistance in modifying this personal statement for other schools or application services will incur additional charges.

When you purchase the Silver and Gold Application Packages, you'll get more than just editing. You’ll get A-Z guidance for a single master’s program application. You will receive:

Comprehensive guidance

• Silver Package: We provide comprehensive guidance for one master’s application with one statement of purpose and no additional writing/essays.
• Gold Package: We provide comprehensive guidance for one master’s application that requires multiple essays and/or additional writing (short answers).

School selection guidance 

• We offer feedback on your competitiveness at the program(s) for which you are using the package. 
• We may also recommend additional programs, if we know of programs that are appropriate for you. 

Brainstorming and outlining of your statement of purpose 

• Silver Package: You will discuss theme and structure during the brainstorming session and then receive a single outline that will provide structure and direction for one statement of purpose. 
• Gold Package: You will discuss theme and structure during the brainstorming session for all essays in the application, and then receive individual outlines that will provide structure and direction for each essay in the application.

Letters of recommendation guidance

• Advice on recommender choice 
• Critique of up to two recommendations, if available 

Interview prep

• One mock interview for each school where you have an interview and for which you purchased an application package.

Waitlist support
