Who we are, what we do

Not all students have the resources to get in front of an education consultant, so we dedicate this space to helping as many students and parents as possible at a price point that can meet any budget.

“Don’t let life kick you into the adult you don’t want to be.” —Chris Hadfield


Welcome to College App Help Desk. We work hard to provide students & parents with information, help in understanding, and answers to FAQs related to the college application process.

We are also ESSAY CURE and our goal is to turn admissions officers into advocates. How? By making students jump off the page. Independent Educational Consultant and founder Christine Gacharná’s extensive editorial background and undergraduate teaching experience uniquely suit ESSAY CURE to specialize in guiding students in the one component that can truly separate them in the college application process — the essay.

Three out of four 2023 ESSAY CURE students enrolled in their first choice college or university with an average of $80,000 in scholarship offers. We know our formula works, but more importantly, it stays with students, helping them become successful communicators at the undergraduate level and in their professional lives. In 2023, ESSAY CURE was awarded the Small Business Award Winner for Homebased Business of the Year for our work with students nationwide.

Subscribers get a bit more oomph; we do this because we’ve seen that when students have skin in the game, they tend to perform at a slightly higher level. We intend to keep the buy-in option affordable for high schoolers yet still push students as high and as far as they can dream of reaching.

—Christine Gacharná, creator & author of “RIGHT My College Application Essay”
