Our Counseling Team
For over 20 years, Premium Prep has helped students fulfill their college dreams. Our team comprises about fifty nationally recognized experts from around the country. We strongly believe that the most qualified and successful independent counselors are those who not only have college admissions experience, but have spent many years in private high schools as college counselors, working intimately with students and families, advising them throughout their high school careers, and personally guiding them through the college process with supreme composure, sensitivity, and professionalism. This is what distinguishes us. We hire only the best, most experienced counselors, each exceptionally skilled and dedicated to our method, and each with an extensive track record of success.
Our Writing Specialists
Our Writing Specialists are carefully vetted teachers with extensive experience working with both college and high school students. Many of our specialists are themselves published writers who deeply understand the entire writing process, from brainstorming to finished phases. All of our specialists have graduate degrees and specialized training in essay writing and teaching.
