College Essay Boot Camp (Volunteer & Student Sign-Ups)

We’re excited to host our annual College Essay Boot Camps—and we need volunteers!

In October, 826 Boston will be hosting two College Essay Boot Camps for high school juniors and seniors to prepare for upcoming college applications. It doesn’t matter if students have a blank page, first draft, or final draft—volunteers will support students at all stages of the writing process.
