“Throughout the whole application process (crazy as it was), Mrs. Shugarman was a steadying force who helped take the complexity of my own personal story and narrow it down to a mere 650 words. Our brainstorming sessions shed light on ideas that I hadn't considered before due to my close proximity to the situation at hand. In addition, her willingness to go beyond simply facilitating the process was amazing. Thanks to her, I was able to receive both detailed feedback as well as get a deeper look into the university that I would eventually end up enrolling.”
