How Mega College Prep works with your family

  • Meetings that fit the program. Elite+ includes a monthly 1:1 with your counselor plus on-demand meetings and text or email Q&A. Exclusive includes unlimited 1:1 meetings and daily support.
  • How our online support works. Chat is open any hour for quick questions, and your counselor follows up. For essays and documents, email your counselor and get written feedback you can keep. When it is faster to talk, call. Then meet online, face to face, to review essays, build the school list and plan together, with parents and student on the same call. Each session ends with a clear plan, so everyone knows who does what before the next meeting, and session reports show what worked and what comes next. When something cannot wait, such as a deadline or an interview invite, book an on-demand meeting on short notice. Your private portal shows where every school, essay and deadline stands.
  • Plans built from real admits. We study the profiles of students admitted to your target schools over the past three years and build yours from them.
