Admitted to Northeastern

I know that without the guidance, support, and knowledge offered by Prepory, I wouldn’t have had the confidence or know-how to navigate the college admissions process and get to where I am now. Prepory changed my life.

Anthony O.
Admitted to Harvard University

Rya Muller has been a consistent source of providing guidance, timely feedback, and any and all help my daughter has needed. I would 1000% recommend Prepory for dedicated coaches like her. She has undoubtedly been an indispensable person in the college application process throughout my daughter's junior and senior year.

Grace B.
Daughter admitted to Carnegie Mellon University

My son and I interviewed about 15 different admission consulting companies before I decided on Prepory. I chose Prepory because they simply offered more hours at the lowest price of any of the reputable companies. We were given 2 committee reviews, where many different consultants read my son’s application, alongside around 30 hours of one-on-one time. Comparable companies really only offered 30 hours for the same price. I’m proud to say that the consulting worked. My son is now attending Brown, and, after seeing how many rounds of revision they went through, I can confidently say that he wouldn’t have gotten to the Ivy League without Prepory and his counselor, Peter.
