A Team of Specialists

Dedicated To Helping You Get Accepted.

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

Moon Prep takes a team approach: Counselors have weekly group calls so that students can benefit from the collective knowledge of the team.
There is no boilerplate in university applications, and grades are not enough to get accepted. We help students build a profile that stands out in more ways than high grades and test scores.
We work around your schedule. College admissions is not a 9-5 job. It is a nights, weekends, and holidays job. That is the level of commitment we stand behind.
