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.

Prepory has helped me with my college application processes since 9th grade, always providing me a quality, friendly, and professional service. Today almost four years after, I don't know if I would have expanded and applied my college prospects without their help. They help me revise my supplement, link me to admission officers, and informational webinars. Aside from these valuable services, all my coaches have been extremely friendly and supportive. Each session is like talking to an old friend or family. I am infinitely grateful to Prepory for these years of service.

These college admissions coaches are not just professionally invested, they’re also genuinely emotionally invested. I’ve been able to become real friends with my coaches, and it was the interest they took in me and the relationships I developed that helped me realize my dream.

Prepory is an awesome service for anyone in the college admission process! They have a team of wonderful individuals who are truly motivated to help you succeed. As a first-generation American, the college admissions process was completely foreign to me. Yet, thanks to Prepory, I have been guided throughout the entire process and have learned so much. They have given me the tools I needed to showcase my best self to universities across the U.S. I couldn’t thank Prepory enough for their kindness and commitment.

Prepory team was supportive and helpful. Giving confidence and pointing out flaws at the same time. We thought that it was an excellent way for the whole application process.

Working with Prepory was my best decision I made for my daughter during her high school years. It was an incredibly rewarding experience. I cannot thank you enough for this Fantastic team in helping my daughter, especially James and Luke. Thank you for their patience, dedication and knowledge. I am very pleased with the progress and results. I definitely will come back for my younger child in 3 years.

Being an immigrant and not studied in America, I was really nervous about how to guide my child in this crucial decision of her life. They really gave us proper guidelines from time to time and have been a facilitator in helping us to make good decisions.

I would have left a similar rating even if my son had not got into several top schools. In terms of this, Bruno, my son's coach, worked with him to ensure that no matter what the outcome, he had done all he could to put himself in the best position. The fact that Bruno recognized what message my son wanted to convey and did not put his own spin into the process, meant a lot to our family. We understand that results matter, and we achieved that, but it was not at the expense of anything that was important to my son.

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.

The Prepory Team was exemplary. Meghan and the rest of the team provided guidance and experience that my wife and I could never have provided. I highly recommend Prepory to any student with aspirations of attending their "dream school".

On behalf of my family, we would like to thank you for all your guidance and support for Varsha. We appreciate the patience and diligence with which you guided Varsha, worked with her side by side on the essays, and helped her get to her dream colleges. We are excited that she got into the highly selective UT Canfield Business Honors Program and gets to go to college closer to home. Thanks again to you and the Prepory team.

Each session was like talking with a family member that cared so deeply about wanting to help make my dreams come true. With their help, I was given a four-year full-tuition scholarship to Vanderbilt University. I cannot thank Prepory enough!!!

Prepory is an excellent college counseling program. They really care about the success of their students, and provide one of the most affordable, comprehensive, and personalized counseling programs out there. My daughter was very happy with her coach Rya, as well as her program director Sarah who made her feel comfortable and went out of their way to help her get into the best schools possible. My daughter got into top schools like UCLA and Cal but chose Purdue since she got into their joint BS/DVM Vet Scholars program. Only 6-8 high school students are selected each year for this program. Thank you Prepory for all your love and support!

Reeta M.
Daughter admitted to Purdue

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for all the attention and support you provided me during my college admission process. I am pleased to inform you that I have completed my senior year and have been admitted to the university of my choice. I want to take this opportunity to thank you once again for your valuable contribution to my application process. Your guidance and advice were fundamental in my success. I am infinitely grateful and satisfied with the work done by Prepory. Your team has been exceptional throughout, and I am confident they will continue to provide excellent service to other students in the future. Once again, thank you very much for all your support. It has been a true pleasure working with you and the Prepory team.

We had bad experiences with our older children, so we talked to many different college counselors to get it right this time. We heard about Prepory through a family friend and ultimately chose them because we felt they had total understanding of the admissions process and knew what to do and when to do it. Our son got into Stanford thanks to Prepory.

Prepory helped our daughter navigate the strenuous application process by breaking it down into manageable tasks, on a set timeline, in order to make it to the finish line - without last minute cramming!

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.

Prepory played a crucial role in my college admissions journey. I was lucky to have Kennedy as my college counselor, who guided me through every step of the process. From interview preparation to personalized counseling sessions, she ensured I was well-prepared and confident. Thanks to Kennedy and the entire Prepory team, I’m thrilled to announce my acceptance to Barnard College. Without their support, I wouldn’t have achieved this milestone. I’m grateful for their guidance, and I look forward to beginning my academic journey at Barnard.

They’ve been helping me since I was a sophomore in high school and it’s been great! They helped me enter Posse and I was actually able to get it! Without their help, I don’t think I would’ve gotten it. I get to go to Mount Holyoke College next semester and I couldn’t be more excited and grateful!

Catherine D.
Admitted to Mount Holyoke

We were thrilled with how Prepory helped keep us on the right timeline. And they were very helpful in finding scholarships that we didn't know about. Also, the review of the college essay and short answers for the common app was extremely helpful.

I can not say enough amazing things about my daughter's College Admissions Coach Nikita Dias. She was extremely helpful with the admissions process! My daughter felt at ease talking with her and working with her to accomplish her goal of finding the perfect college experience.

We thought Caitlyn did a great job with Christina. So far, she has gotten into every school she applied to. Meeting once a week was perfect for Christina. We started the process late because she was training for an athletic scholarship, so given the short time frame, Prepory did a great job.

Frequently asked questions

College counseling is a service that guides students toward the path to college admissions success. The college admissions process is exactly that—a process and one that requires critical steps at each stage.


To succeed in the process, students must accomplish several critical objectives: 1) develop the self-awareness and clarity they need to excel in their academic and collegiate endeavors, 2) understand how their application will be evaluated and the strengths and weaknesses of their application, thus far, and 3) how to effectively package and present the achievements they’ve worked so hard to earn.


Much like the admissions committee evaluates candidates holistically, we too, evaluate and coach our students through a holistic approach to get them from where they are to where they should be.

Prepory provides several packages and service offerings. We offer hourly advising, unlimited college essay reviews, and comprehensive packages for high school and transfer students. Our standard annual programming, our most popular service offering, includes 1:1 advising sessions, unlimited essay reviews, college exploration workshops, and access to college prep content via MyPrepory. Our programming is competitively priced, with fees ranging from several hundred to thousands of dollars.

Through college counseling, students will understand how to effectively navigate the college admissions process with confidence and vigor. With guidance from Prepory, students explore best-fit college options, strategically college search, demonstrate meaningful academic and extracurricular involvement, and understand how to strategically tackle their college application.

Through one-on-one advising sessions, students meet with their college admissions coach to receive individualized counseling following their personalized syllabus and program milestones. They’ll work together to brainstorm, curate, and form their college application collateral. One-on-one advising sessions occur through Zoom video conferences and are 60 minutes long.

Our college admissions team leverages over 100 years of collective admissions experience. Our team is made up of multi-degree academics, former university faculty, former admissions officers, Ivy League writing coaches, and graduates from the nation’s most selective schools.


Students are paired with a college admissions coach based on their availability, academic interests, and area of expertise.


All Prepory college admissions coaches undergo a comprehensive training course before working with their students. This course is designed by our team of former admissions officers from the University of Pennsylvania, University of Chicago, and Brown University.
