What College Admissions Readers Really Want to See with Jill Margaret Shulman

This week on the KORE Women podcast, Dr. Summer Watson is joined by Jill Margaret Shulman, who is a college admissions expert, author, and founder of In Other Words, a college essay coaching service, who has evaluated thousands of applications for top colleges. In this conversation, we break down what really matters when it comes to the college essay and how students can approach the process with more confidence and less stress. Jill shares what admissions readers are actually looking for, why the pressure to be “perfect” often gets in the way, and how students can find their voice even if they don’t think they have a standout story. We also talk about overcoming quieting self-doubt and navigating this process in a way that feels authentic and manageable. If you or someone you know is preparing to write college applications, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and practical guidance.
