Our Mission
Our mission is to guide students through the college admissions process with clarity, structure, and expert support. We work to help them craft authentic applications, gain acceptance to the right colleges, and maximize scholarship opportunities.
What Makes Us Different
A Structured, Step-by-Step Process
Our program follows a clear, organized system that guides students from school list development to final application submission.
Expert Writing + Strategic Positions
We help students identify what makes them stand out and communicate it effectively to create memorable and compelling essays to admissions and scholarship committees.
Accountability that Keeps Students on Track
We provide structure, deadlines, and ongoing guidance so students don’t fall behind or rush critical parts of the process at the last minute.
A Smarter Approach to AI and Essays
With more students using AI tools, it’s easy for essays to become generic. We teach students how to use technology effectively, while still producing authentic, original work that stands out.
Program Overview
Educational Writing Services’ College Coaching Programs were founded in 2020 after Dr. Chambers identified a need for students to receive more guidance during their college admissions and scholarship processes during their 12th-grade year.
Before 2020, Educational Writing Services had been assisting high school students individually, but during the COVID-19 pandemic, the company decided to create a programmatic cohort model.
Dr. Chambers’ passion derives from her personal journey of applying to colleges, identifying scholarship opportunities, and writing many scholarship essays, which ultimately led her to a 100% debt-free college for her undergraduate and graduate degree programs through the use of scholarships, assistantships, and fellowships.
Now, she is on a mission to assist her students in identifying various college options and funding sources while assisting them with their writing.
