The college application and decision process can be extremely overwhelming, and Chris' help and…read moreguidance throughout the entire experience from beginning to end was indispensable. There are so many aspects that need to be managed, and Chris keeps you and your child on task. He is also very easy to contact, which is SO important. A friend of ours referred us to Chris, and we reached out to him very early in the process, which was very beneficial. Our son was very unsure as to what school he wanted to attend and also did not know exactly what he wanted to study. Chris helped us narrow down our choices as time went on, helped us with school visits, helped us with Naviance (which is a nightmare), and also kept our son on task as far as testing and classes. He was worth every penny that was spent - our results were amazing, and my son will be attending the school that is the perfect fit for him this fall 2022.

I felt compelled once again to thank Chris and his staff for helping us through what seemed to be…read morean overwhelming process. Our son was able to get into an honors program at a top 5 public university, and I can't help but think Chris had a big part in helping him achieve that milestone. If you need anyone to help you with the ever changing college admission process, Chris is the only person I would trust. Thanks again for everything Chris.

The Ingenius counselors are mostly part-timers, very busy with other things. One counselor was an…read moreundergraduate student with one (!) college internship to her credit and some activist interests, just needed an easy part-time job. We were told that these were seasoned individuals with experience. Only after prodding, we received background info. Frequent short-notice schedule changes. One counselor cancelled an appointment, sending a message he was just getting on a plane to visit his parents, he forgot about the appointment. Superficial counselling keeping students busy and then not giving productive feedback. I blame Ingenius for the many rejections my high-performing high schooler received. From schools she should have gotten into or at least waitlisted. Ingenius provided wrong and lazy advice. We hired them thinking they could provide expertise we thought we didn't have ourselves. We were wrong. We would have been better off navigating the college prep and application process ourselves. Likely with better results. Very disappointing. Avoid Ingenius at all costs. Parents, trust your own process. We are figuring out legal action, to get our money back.

This company focuses on marketing and as salesmen, not on quality service. Their counselors quality…read morevary greatly, with inconsistent quality for their writing counselors and FOAs alike. The FOAs especially are lazier and more inexperienced with little to no mentorship on application materials even though their one job description is to be strategic advisors to maximize the applications. The writing counselors don't offer anything beyond simple edits, but their services charge more than industry standards. They also switched counselors with us many times which worsened the issue further, and the last set of counselors/FOAs only met with us once a week and once per 3 months respectively. Even with inexperienced counselors, it's one thing if they are inexperienced and they let us know, but Ingenius will present them as the "best they know" and you won't find out until weeks later because they only do 1 meeting per week at best. Very inflexible, and with the many counselors they had us switch, the inexperience ones were not only under qualified but also lazy and won't put in the effort to even have basic communication unless you constantly check in. Some counselors also have full time jobs, leaving little time nor flexibility and the company will not let you know in advance that they are part time. Overall, the experience was subpar with a high price tag. Find local based American counselor/strategists instead, 1/4 of ingenius's price tag and 4x better quality with more individual attention to students. I'd give -5 stars if I could.

I interviewed over 10 counseling companies and none knew bs/md the way moon prep does. I was very impressed how every counselor on the team has extensive knowledge in this area. Truly, this is what the company is known for. Competitors gave vague answers and I could tell this was not their specialty at all. Bs/md programs are expensive, a private school can cost $75k a year and times that by 7 or 8 years for bs/md program. So I do not recommend trying to skimp on the help your child needs to get into this type of competitive program. It's more than worth the money to hire a professional counselor to guide your child. My son was accepted to numerous bs/md programs and with scholarships too. We are thrilled.
