It's a chance to show colleges what your teen will contribute to their classrooms and community.

So helpful!

I’m a certified teacher but was clueless about the responsibilities in the Common App. The Counselor Letter Toolkit is affordable and practical. Step-by-step instructions and examples made my job so much easier!

Easy to Follow Format

I am glad I found out about adding these this form to help my students on their college acceptance journey. Everything is laid out with 2 examples. I would have liked a few more examples, but this has me started in the right direction.

Thank you. This was very useful.

So helpful!

This toolkit was such a great way to get started on my counselor letter. After 11 years of homeschooling my child, it was hard to know how to wrap all of it up into a concise letter. This had great tips, examples, layout assistance, and explanation on the purpose of the letter... everything I needed to get me going.

Step-by-Step Guide

This toolkit helped so much with writing a great counselor letter for my homeschooler. I had seen other examples, but this helped step me through each section, not be too wordy, and had great tips included.
