Written by:
In this episode of the College Help Squad Podcast, host Cynthia Wagner talks with Danielle Lescure, one of College Help Squad’s essay coaches, about how students can approach college admissions essays with more confidence and clarity. They break down the Common App essay, UC personal insight questions, supplemental essays, and what admissions offices are really looking for when they read a student’s writing. Danielle also shares how she helps students brainstorm topics, find stronger stories, and write essays that feel personal, specific, and true to who they are.
They also talk about repurposing essays, how students can prepare over the summer, what families should understand about word counts and deadlines, and why AI cannot replace a student’s real voice in the college admissions process. This episode is a helpful guide for students and parents who want a clearer, more thoughtful approach to writing college admissions essays.
