Our family has worked with Zenith for last 3 years and we have appreciated their professionalism and the depth of knowledge they offer to my student. Our strategy counselor Yohan is very thorough, and we always feel that we have a mentor just a message away whenever we need guidance related to all the academic questions that come up throughout the school year.

The people who supported me throughout the whole process, especially my college admissons counselor helped me alot to understand and get through college admissions. From preparing my grades, understanding what colleges want to see from prospective students, getting my test scores ready, and overall helping me see a bigger picture of myself. I do not see myself going this far if Zenith had not pushed me, and helped optimized my current work to be able to get admitted. Their focus is not just on reaching dream schools but having many different options available that still meet the goals you would have for the future. Thank you Zenith Prep Academy for all the help and tools you provided for me! I highly consider using their program to help high school students prepare for the next step in education!

Counselors are very well connected and very knowledgeable about your kid's area of development. I appreciate the money back guarantee and I really like how well matched the personalities are for my kids. We meet monthly which is great for younger kids but not great for older kids who need more intense work as they get closer to graduation. Overall, I am pleased. I could never give my kids the kind of experience and educational enrichment Zenith provides...on my own.

Zenith Prep Academy — A Life-Changing Experience for Our Family We are so proud and thrilled to share that our son, Devesh Cherukuri, has been accepted to the Carroll School of Management at Boston College for Finance and Business — his absolute first choice! And we owe so much of this achievement to the incredible team at Zenith Prep Academy! Shivani Suresh was Devesh’s primary counselor throughout all four years of high school, and she was simply outstanding. From freshman year, she took the time to truly know Devesh, understand his strengths, and guide him toward his passion for Finance and Business. Her dedication, warmth, and strategic guidance over the years laid the foundation for his success. During his senior year, when Shivani had to unexpectedly go on emergency leave right in the middle of college application season, Katie stepped in without missing a beat. She was organized, caring, and completely committed to making sure Devesh’s applications were the best they could be. We are so grateful for how seamlessly she took over during such a critical time. Together, Shivani and Katie made what could have been an overwhelming process feel manageable and even exciting. If you are looking for college counselors who are truly invested in your child’s success — Zenith Prep Academy is the answer. We cannot recommend them highly enough! — Proud Parents of Devesh Cherukuri, Boston College Class of 2029 🎉

We've had a positive experience so far with Zenith, especially with our educational strategist - Bec Brady. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and easy to relate to, which has made the process feel comfortable and encouraging for our family. She has been especially helpful in guiding my son as he explores new career ideas and possibilities. At this stage, it still feels like we're in m ore of a "getting to know Zenith" phase. We currently have a once-a-month check-in focused on deliverables, which has been helpful, but we're still hoping to see more of the full range of support the program offers. We haven't yet connected with some of the additional resources that were mentioned but we are looking forward to seeing how those pieces come together over time. Overall, we've appreciated the support we've received so far and are optimistic about what's ahead. A special shoutout to our Educational Strategist - Bec Brady - for the care and guidance she's provided.

My counsellor guided me really well and provided me with great summer programs to strengthen my application. Thanks to his guidance, I ended up in one of the best CS universities in the US. Would highly recommend Zenith!

We had a great experience with Zenith, using it for our son’s senior year. The presentations (College Cornerstones and Sit Down and Write series) were immensely helpful. Our Educational Strategist was David N. - working with him was fantastic! He brought a wealth of knowledge and was always accessible and responsive. Plus, his personality and energy matched our son’s. We are very happy with the acceptances our son received and feel that Zenith played a large part in making sure our son’s application was the best it could be. We highly recommend Zenith.
