<p>Hello parents of CC. It's winter break, and the deadline is approach soon for college applications. I'm in quite a pickle. My parents are immigrants, so they can only read my essays for general ideas and give broad feedback. School's out, so no teachers. Most of my peers are on vacation... which leaves no one to give feedback on my common application essay. Would any of you be willing to help me out? I did have a chance to get some people over on the College Essays forum to help out, but many of them are also high schoolers, and I desperately need opinions from an alternate perspective. Thank you so much for any help!</p>
<p>I am a parent, and an Ivy alum myself. My son is a senior, but already accepted Early Decision, so I have no conflicts. Let me know how I can help</p>
<p>Pm the essay to me and I'll look it over too. My daughter is already in ED and my son is in college so no conflicts here either.</p>
<p>I'm the parent of a college freshman, and a former English grad student and professional writer/editor. I'd be happy to look over your essays if you wish.</p>
