Can THOUSANDS of Parents Be wrong?

Watch a real Zenith parent capturing the moment their child is accepted into the Ivy League university of her dreams

Alex

Alex has been so happy with his relationship with Zenith that he’s looking forward to signing up his younger kids when they’re old enough.

Alex’s daughter was in the 7th grade when she began her college prep guidance with Zenith Prep Academy. Although Alex attended a Top 30 university in the US himself, he realized how challenging the admissions process had become, and was unsure of what classes, activities, and competitions would help his daughter best explore her passions and find her area of interest. He was looking for a highly customized strategy for his daughter to build the right extracurricular profile so she’d be able to stand out from the tens of thousands of other students with similar academics. Alex has been so happy with his relationship with Zenith that he’s looking forward to signing up his younger kids when they’re old enough.

Lana

Lana’s son joined our program in the 7th grade.

Lana had quickly realized her son’s school wasn’t challenging or engaging enough for him. He was a very bright, driven, and articulate student who had specific fields that he was interested in. He and Lana wanted to know how he could further his interests in these fields through more advanced classes and different competitions, projects, activities,
and more.

Phani

Family sought guidance on how to help his son identify his interests and further develop his passion to stand out to top colleges.

Phani’s son was in the 8th grade when they joined our college consulting program. His son was bright and doing well academically, though he had no exposure to any fields/majors. Outside of sports, he also hadn’t participated in any academic or extracurricular activities. Given that Phani didn’t have any experience with how college admissions in the US worked, his family sought guidance on how to help his son identify his interests and further develop his passion to stand out to top colleges.

Manoj

Manoj enrolled his youngest son into our program towards the end of his 9th grade to give him the right opportunities, exposure, and guidance that his older son unfortunately missed out on.

Having gone through the college application process once with his older son and knowing how challenging and overwhelming it was, Manoj wanted to find a college consulting program for his younger son to stand out. They understood having a strong academic profile with lots of honors/AP classes, a high–weighted GPA (ex. 4.5+), and high standardized scores was not going to help his son get into the colleges he was looking to attend. Manoj enrolled him into our program early on in high school, towards the end of his 9th grade, to give him the right opportunities, exposure, and guidance that his older son unfortunately missed out on.

We Focus on the
Needs of Students Looking
to Attend Top Colleges

We understand that there are few resources available for parents of 6th – 12th graders who are looking to get into the best universities possible – especially for children who are high-academic achieving or those whose true strengths are not found on their report cards. The reason is because most college consulting programs are designed for the general public and with mass appeal in mind.
However, both these students and situations require a very specific strategy and solution to ensure they are accepted into the universities they worked hard for and deserve.

The Most Powerful,

Yet Easiest Advantage You Can Give Your Child

Why Start NOW? Is it too early?

The most common question that parents always ask us is,
“What is the biggest advantage I can give my child to get into a good college?”

The answer always is:

Why Start NOW? Is it too early?

The most common question that parents always ask us is,
“What is the biggest advantage I can give my child to get into a good college?”

The answer always is:

“More time. It’s choosing when your child starts."

Zenith Prep Academy Image

This is undoubtedly the most powerful advantage a parent can give a child in getting them into the college they deserve.

More time is the difference between a student that gets into Stanford versus UC Berkeley. It is the difference between getting into a Top 25 university versus a Top 50 university.

And here’s the reason why.

This is undoubtedly the most powerful advantage a parent can give a child in getting them into the college they deserve. More time is the difference between a student that gets into Stanford versus UC Berkeley. It is the difference between getting into a Top 25 university versus a Top 50 university.

And here’s the reason why.

Because just like most things in life, the more time a child has, the more head start they have in life. It’s just a simple fact of life.

Just like playing basketball, violin, programming, or anything else, a child with 4 years of time will have a significant advantage and opportunities over the child that has only 2 years to achieve the same goal.  And getting into a good college is no different.


Because there are many things you can’t control for your child such as:

But the one thing you can control is…

How much time they have left between now and when they apply to college in the 12th grade.

By JUST purely starting YOUNGER and NOTHING ELSE, this already gives your child AT LEAST a 5x advantage over other students when they fill out the SAME application in the 12th grade!

By JUST purely starting YOUNGER and NOTHING ELSE, this already gives your child AT LEAST a 5x advantage over other students when they fill out the SAME application in the 12th grade!

Imagine the difference in STRENGTH and how much a college application TRULY STANDS OUT when a child has been working towards this goal with the right expert guidance 5x longer than another applicant.

So, when a parent is able to give their child more time as an edge, which means more proper planning and structuring as early as possible, it is actually a HUGE competitive advantage and results in way less stress for both the child and a parent.

And in our 17+ years of doing this, we STILL haven’t heard a parent, out of the thousands of parents we’ve worked with, say “I wish I
started later.”

Every parent by the time 12th grade comes around says, “I really wish I started earlier.”

The reason is because the hours required to develop a strong winning profile didn't just magically go away just because you started later.

Everything that is required for a strong and competitive profile is just now compressed into LESS time until the college application deadline.

Said differently, the choices that parents of 6th11th graders make today have devastating ripple effects and consequences on their 12th grade college application.

So, if you’re reading this right now, then congratulations on taking the first and most important step to give your child the most powerful advantage a parent can give, which is more time and more opportunities in their life.
