Featured Testimonials:

“You can learn about the college app process online, but hearing tips that were tailored to my personal circumstances was informative beyond reading any College Confidential thread.” — Vivian, 12th grade (Ask Us Anything service)

“I loved reading the essays and creativity flowed from each of them. Before, I was so lost and uncoordinated on what to write for my essays but after, I was relieved and inspired to write essays aligning with my personality. Their responsiveness and adaptability is impeccable.” — I.M., 11th grade (Read Our Essays service)

I found Ad Astra’s edits and comments to be extremely helpful with fluidity, conciseness, and clarity in my Common App essay. Before their services, I felt uneasy about my topic, structure, and writing style. Now I feel reassured that I can make the revisions and turn my essay in the best version possible!” — Sarah, 12th grade (Essay Editing service)
