College Application Essay Workshop

High school seniors are invited to attend a free presentation and workshop on “Writing a Successful College Application Essay” at the Civic Center Library, located at 1188 South Livermore Avenue. No registration is required.

Stephanie Ueland, an independent college admissions advisor located in Livermore, will explain what college admissions departments look for in an application essay, alert students to potential pitfalls, and give strategies for composing a distinctive essay. In addition, she will discuss the essay prompts being used by the University of California, discuss how the U.C. admissions essay differs from other application essays, and how to make the best use of a supplemental essay. The session also will give students the opportunity to begin planning their own college application essay.

For questions or more information, please call Teen Programming Librarian Caitlyn Lung at 925-373-5576.
