Great program

The platform made it super easy to connect with the editor and team. The edits were insightful and shed light on areas I would’ve missed.

Pricey, but 100% worth it

Kathryn was an amazing tutor! With experience as an AP high school English teacher, she helped me write my personal statement from the ground up- from brainstorming ideas to guidance through all 6 of my drafts. She did an excellent job helping me highlight my best qualities in writing. In addition, the Prompt software is excellent, and is great at organizing the schools you're applying to and the different applications they may have. While the package may initially seem pricey, it was 100% worth it. I feel so confident with my personal statement!

A peace of mind while out of the country…

I was able to be out of the country with a peace in mind that someone was there for my daughter to give her guidance if she needed while preparing for college applications. It was great to have someone brainstorm with her, and giving her a guided starting point to the end. And the best part is that every word was written by the student that she can take pride in.

Hiring prompt was the best decision in…

Hiring prompt was the best decision in the college application process. The coach helped my daughter put her thoughts down in writing and decide on a topic for the common essay. I was worried this part would be stressful, but my daughter thrived with the help of the coach and was able to confidently submit a very well thought out essay. Thank you prompt!

100% recommend Prompt

My daughter applied to many schools. Without the help from Prompt, she would not be able to complete all the essays on time. Her coach helped her to organize the different deadline. Worked on one at the time. That really helps her not feeling overwhelmed. Coach respects her ideas, and helps her to elaborate her ideas. We would 100% recommend Prompt.

The deadline for the Common App essay was less than a week, and with the help of Prompt, I was able to complete all of my essays and the parts I wanted to change.

Great Experience

My experience was great because my writing coach gave feedback on drafts quickly and her comments were very helpful. I also liked the brainstorming process at the beginning to help come up with an idea for my essay.

Great job, Prompt

A parent friend with a child a year younger than my high-school senior daughter asked me to share my college spreadsheet, and was surprised that I don't have one. Then she asked how do I keep everything organized with tasks and deadlines? I don't. I have Prompt!
Thank you, Prompt, for adding sanity to my busy life. I was able to step away as needed, and check in on the progress as needed, without disrupting communication between my daughter and her essay coach. Nichole always had amazing input, helped with brainstorming on seemingly never ending number of essays, and most efficiently aided in trimming for word count. To my surprise, the coaching was very efficient even during the holiday season, right after Christmas holidays through to the early January deadlines. Thank you for your professionalism and for accommodating my little procrastinator.
I have one more college bound child coming up in 4 years, and will definitely contract Prompt again.

Excellent

Prompt was excellent, helping our daughter work through the college application essays. She wouldn't have been able to do it without their help, as her parents are pure science and math geeks with little to no support in essay writing! We can't thank them enough for their professionalism and awesome influence.

Excellent support for college essay writing

My daughter enjoyed working with her writing coach - excellent advise on overall essay structure, key aspects to emphasize and relate to her resume, highlight her personality, language use and expression. Very supportive and motivating meetings! Essay drafts have been reviewed as many times as needed. The best is that Prompt provides very flexible service - they adjust to your timeline and review drafts always within 2 days! Extremely reliable. Always there for you! You are the key driver of your application though by making decisions on essay topics, ideas for those. They will help you getting to your own decisions but not make them for you. The review of the college app list helped us learn some tricks on how to organize a lot of info, to highlight the most important and present it within the word limit. They made the overall process actually enjoyable.

Found Prompt through college consultant

Found Prompt through Ask Ms. Sun, a college consultant / resource for UC PIQ help. My daughter was happy with it and also alleviated stress for both parent and child. It's nice to know there's a third party to rely on.
Both Dylan and Eva were very good and also consistent across feedback. We were very pleased with both of them—no complaints or issues!
Appreciated responsive communications and regular follow up / check ins with parent + student. Onboarding experience was also very smooth and easy. Got started right away. I liked that Prompt's sole focus on just the written portions of the college application essay process. They do a terrific job!

Reliable and worth the price

With Prompt we got through a stressful process with solid support. Any questions or concerns were answered quickly and thoroughly. Well worth the investment. We got our moneys worth. My daughter felt great about her essays and applied to a broad range of schools. Her writing in general improved as well.

Great feedback, fast and helpful

My reviewer helped me pinpoint which idea was best for my essay and how to make my personality come through in my examples. I found it reassuring to have someone look at my work and tell me where I could make it better.

Prompt

Prompt was very flexible and patient with me as I often missed my deadlines. I am 3/3 so far on acceptances to colleges and one with a scholarship. I believe my essay is a strong factor in that, in which prompt really helped me with.

Lori was great

Lori was great. She really worked well with my student. When my student didn't hit the mark, Lori was very kind with how she communicated so that it didn't stress my student out.
There were times my student would get feedback on ten essays in one day, which was amazing. We could only have gotten through all the schools we did with her help.

Comfortable and so helpful!

I felt so comfortable brainstorming and drafting an essay with my coach at Prompt. I was nervous to have a stranger read and edit my work but after the first round of revisions I was so glad to have professional helping me! I would recommend using Prompt well before your application deadline so you have lots of time to edit and feel confident in your work. :)
