About Harvest College Prep
Transforming dreams into acceptances at America's most prestigious universities for over 15 years
Our Story
From Vision to Reality
Founded in 2010, Harvest College Prep began with a simple yet ambitious mission: to democratize access to elite American universities for students worldwide. What started as a small consulting firm has grown into a trusted partner for families seeking the highest quality college admissions guidance.
Our founders, former Ivy League admissions officers, recognized that the college admissions landscape was becoming increasingly competitive. They saw brilliant students with tremendous potential struggling to navigate the complex application process without proper guidance.
Today, we've helped over 1,000 students gain admission to their dream schools, maintaining an unprecedented 92% acceptance rate to U.S. News Top 15 universities. Our success isn't measured just in numbers—it's in the transformed lives and boundless futures we help create.
