OUR PURPOSE
The Write Direction works to level the playing field for low and middle income students unable to afford private college counseling services.
The Need
• A growing number of private college admissions coaches who cater to well-to-do students
• Overworked high school guidance counselors
• Promising high school students who can’t afford expensive private counseling services
Our Mission
The Write Direction guides underserved high school students as they prepare essays for college admissions and scholarship applications.
How We Do It
Through group workshops and one-on-one counseling, students learn to tell their own stories, in their own voices, as they navigate college applications and scholarship interviews.
