General questions
College essay review is the process of having your college application essays analyzed, edited, and improved. It evaluates structure, content, grammar, authenticity, and admissions appeal so you can craft compelling essays that stand out to admission officers.
Our service
Essium uses AI to give feedback on story, voice, reflection, and clarity, with inline suggestions and revision tools. Provide your prompt for context, evaluate the feedback, and revise in your own words. Keep your experiences accurate and follow each institution’s rules on AI assistance.
Pricing & value
Essium starts with a free tier so you can experience the quality first. Premium reviews are a one-time $49 Season Pass (6 months, no auto-renew) — far less than traditional consultants who often charge hundreds of dollars per essay.
Essay quality
A great college essay shows authentic voice, demonstrates self-reflection, reveals character beyond grades, and connects with the reader. It favors specific storytelling and genuine insight over a list of achievements.
Process & results
Most students benefit from 2-3 rounds: an initial review, revisions based on feedback, and a final polish. Instant feedback makes multiple iterations quick and painless.
