Ivy League Prep Academy Podcast
Equipping you to successfully pursue the college of your dreams. I believe that the world needs every student to reach their full potential. College admittance shouldn't hold you back. I'm an educator and Harvard grad who has been in your shoes. I designed this podcast to accompany the Ivy League Challenge (my online course) to support my listeners. I've met with graduates, admissions officers, and professors to identify the criteria used to select candidates. I've crafted a road map for success and can share it with you.

Today is Ivy Day, and the results are in.
This year:
- 5 out of 6 of my 1:1 students who applied to Yale were admitted
- Others were accepted to Cornell, Dartmouth, Princeton, and UPenn
- One student was admitted early to both Yale and Caltech
These outcomes are not random.
In this episode, I’m sharing a full training I recently delivered to families, breaking down the strategy behind why some students consistently stand out, while others (who are just as capable) don’t.
Inside this training, you’ll learn:
- Why strong students still get rejected from top schools
- The mistake most families make when planning internships and summer activities
- What admissions officers are actually looking for
- How to use this upcoming summer to build a compelling, differentiated application
If your teen is in 8th–11th grade, this is a critical window, and what they do next matters more than most families realize.
