About College Essay Checker

College Essay Checker gives students quick, honest feedback on college application essays: a Common App personal statement, a supplemental essay, or a scholarship essay. You paste the essay, and an AI model instructed to read like an admissions reader returns a score from 1 to 10 and specific notes on the hook, structure, voice, specificity, and grammar.

What it does not do

It does not write or rewrite your essay (beyond correcting a few short phrases), and it does not predict admission. Use it between drafts to see what to fix next, and keep a teacher, counselor, or parent in the loop for the final read.

Independent

This is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with the Common App or any college or university.
