Prep 4 College Now

Admission to college has become
more competitive than ever.

All across America, budget cuts for private and public colleges and universities make it harder than ever for students to compete for admission.

Most colleges receive ten to twenty times more applications than there are freshman seats available.

In response to a national trend of decreasing college placement opportunities and an increasing drop in admissions, college-bound students and their parents are turning to professional and certified college admissions counselors.


In 2010, 32,000 well-credentialed students applied to Stanford (the largest number in history). Of those, only 2300 were accepted. (As stated April 1st, 2010, by the Washington Post)

Andi Frimmer’s Prep4CollegeNow understands what set those 2300 students apart from the rest of the applicants and ensures those winning characteristics are part of your student’s portfolio.
