Don't Let Stress Bring You Down
It is normal to feel stressed during college application season. But if your stress is getting in the way of college admission essay writing or taking a toll on your body, mind or behavior, it is time to take a break. Instead of succumbing to the pressure, rise above the stress associated with college application season with these simple tips.

Manage your stress. Take a few days off from the college application process including writing the college application essay. Manage your stress by exercise, yoga or meditation. Try to leave your regular study area and take a walk in the outdoors. Participating in your favorite hobby such as playing a sport, singing or reading can also help alleviate stress. The goal is to give your mind a vacation from thinking and worrying about the college application process.

Reach out for help. Remember that you're not alone. Consider asking for help in the areas that you feel the most inadequate. For example, if you can write a powerful law school admission personal statement but lack an editor's eye for grammar and spelling, consider asking a tutor for help. A professional editor can polish your essay and provide you with the constructive criticism you need to turn in a final essay that is well-written and devoid of mistakes.
