Lola is applying to university - who can guide us?
Looking for a graduate who can spend an hour a week reviewing Lola's essays until January.

I'm Lola, 18, in Year 12. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study architecture.
I have a top-of-class average, I volunteer at my church youth group and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work.
I'm looking for an hour a week until January. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request.
Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- university experience, essay feedback

Wishing you the best, Lola. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Cali
Wishing you peace, Lola. This could happen to any of us
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Vancouver!
Sending good thoughts, Lola. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors.
hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Pune so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Kraków
Best of luck, Lola. Hope you get there. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
Sending strength, Lola. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings!
You're not alone, Lola. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Lagos.
Take care. Study hard! Don't give up. Love from Buenos Aires.
Wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Ikeja.
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Anaheim so I could bring a meal.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Istanbul.
Thanks for sharing this. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
