Our Students Get In
Moon Prep consists of experienced counselors who focus on an admissions strategy, not just adding a few commas to your personal statement. Students get one shot at admission – we understand that. We are your partner in this journey, your partner in success, and your partner in helping you land in the accepted pile at your dream school.
The Moon Prep Team
- Unlike large, private equity-backed companies, Moon Prep remains a founder-led, hands-on team where families receive personalized attention and a truly customized experience.
- Our leadership team remains actively involved and readily available to provide support, guidance, and peace of mind throughout the admissions process.
- Moon Prep takes a team approach: Students can benefit from the team’s collective knowledge and are able to work with more than one team member, depending on the task.
- We understand students have busy schedules; our counselors are available evenings and weekends in your time zone.
- Each counselor works with a limited number of students so families can feel confident that their student receives dedicated attention and timely support.
- Each counselor works with BS/MD candidates every admissions cycle, honing their expertise in this specialized field of admissions.
