Composing the Applications

Competency Development

Composing application essays and preparing for college interviews offers practice in writing and speaking, respectively. Formulating an authentic and compelling response to the personal essay topic heightens interpretive competencies. In the Becker approach, supplemental essays that demonstrate student fit to particular institutions become an extended exercise in adaptation and sociological imagination. All essays proceed through multiple drafts, providing opportunities to respond directly and appropriately to feedback and supportive criticism.

Capstone Experience

The capstone experience is an evening for family, friends and Becker consultants to gather and listen to the student read and discuss the carefully composed application essays. Amid the frenzy of contemporary life, this evening offers a special moment to honor the growing self-awareness of one peerless individual.
