Why College Essay Proofreading Matters

College applications are stressful enough. Between test prep, recommendation letters, and endless forms, the last thing you need to worry about is whether your essay is clear, polished, and error-free. That's where Rewrite Club comes in.

Affordable Proofreading for High School Students

Admissions officers read thousands of essays every year. Small mistakes, unclear sentences, or awkward phrasing can distract from your story - and cost you that strong first impression. Even the best writers need an editor.

At Rewrite Club, we specialize in helping high school students transform strong drafts into essays that shine. Our goal isn't to rewrite your work; it's to sharpen your voice, correct errors, and ensure every word is working for you.

Transparent Pricing (No Hourly Clock)

We usually charge $55 per hour, but to make things simpler (and more affordable to students and families), we've introduced per-word pricing:

• Base Rate: $.06/word
• Launch Discount: Reduced to $.04/word for all college essays booked this season.
• Example: A 650-word Common App essay would cost just $26 with the discount.

This way, you'll know exactly what to expect - no ticking clock, just transparent pricing.
