Hi, I'm Bethany

The founder of Stand Out College Prep, I am on a mission to help students and parents navigate the process for getting admitted into and paying for college.

Based in New York, I have over 17 years of experience in college admissions and financial aid. As a graduate of the University of Chicago, I bring best-in-class and premium resources to help busy and overwhelmed parents of college-bound teens. I've coached over 2,500 students to get $25,000,000 in scholarships and financial aid for college.

I've been featured in Good Morning America, Wall Street Journal, Forbes-ranked podcasts, HuffPost, USA Today, and Newsday. The Stand Out College Prep blog is regularly referred by high school counselors to parents as a trusted resource.
