Essay Editing Ethics

As part of our commitment to excellence, all EssayEdge editors are held to rigorous ethical standards. Crafting an admissions essay is an extremely personal process, and our editors are trained to provide constructive advice and grammatical improvement without infringing upon your creativity. When you choose EssayEdge for your essay-editing needs, we guarantee:

  • EssayEdge is not an essay mill. We do not write essays for clients. Rather, we are a team of experienced, knowledgeable professionals dedicated to helping you create the best possible essay for your application. You are the author of your essay.
  • The ideas are yours, not ours. Your finished product will remain your own, since our editors do not add content, change ideas, reorganize work, or make other broad modifications that could take away from your individual voice. Instead, we give you the best possible guidance for how to make your essay shine in front of an admissions committee.
  • Constructive criticism and honest, professional advice are vital. Most EssayEdge orders include a personalized critique that is tailored to your individual essay. Your editor considers your background, application type, and all other information you provide to craft recommendations that match your unique needs.
  • The edit is just the beginning. With your editor's insightful advice, you will be able to improve your essay even more after receiving your completed edit. While we won't make large-scale changes for you, we will give detailed advice for how you can make such changes on your own.
  • An editor who works with you, not simply for you. We are committed to helping you create a finished product you can be proud of and know is your own. Many EssayEdge services allow you to interact with your editor over e-mail or the phone, and all of them allow you to contact your editor with any follow-up questions after your edit is complete.

Whether you need a basic proofread or a candid assessment of your essay's strengths and weaknesses, EssayEdge has an editor ready to help you conquer this unique challenge of the admissions process.
