About this event

Family College Night

This free event is for families who want a clear, strategic plan to help their child stand out in the college admissions process and become a highly desirable applicant.

What You'll Walk Away With:

  • A step-by-step guide for each grade level (6th-12th) to stay on track for college admissions.
  • The activities, courses, and milestones that truly matter—and what’s just noise.
  • How to build a student profile that stands out—no matter their strengths.
  • What high-performing families do differently to open up more opportunities for their children.

The most successful students don’t navigate this process alone, nor should you. Bring the whole family and get on the same page about what it really takes to get into college and succeed there.

About Kate Stone:

When I was motorcycling around the rice fields of Bali in 2009 teaching with the Princeton fellowship program, I never imagined that my work would evolve into the holistic preparatory program it is today—helping hundreds of students not just get into top universities, but build extraordinary lives.

In my years working under top college coaches and developing lasting mentorships with heads of elite admissions, I mastered the art of
packaging and pitching successful college applicants.

While guiding students into top schools, I was also chasing my own lifelong dream—becoming a working actress, a decade-long journey that took me from Hollywood to international film sets. Auditioning taught me that high stakes demand preparation, and sold me on the power and importance of storytelling. I became known for my ability to draw stories out of teenagers and teach them how to tell their stories.

But the deeper I got into this work, the more I saw the flaw in the college prep industry. It focuses too much on shaping the perfect application and not enough on shaping the person. I didn’t want to just help kids tell their stories. I wanted to help them create stories. And I didn’t want to work exclusively with the top 5% of students already destined for success. I wanted to help all students build lives so interesting, so bold, that their stories naturally became compelling.

This is when Kate Stone Prep was born.

It wasn’t just about college anymore. It became about mentorship, character development, and pushing students to do things they never thought they could. I would not be doing the level of work I am today without the mentors I’ve had, the deep fears I’ve had to confront, and the training and conditioning I’ve put myself through. The best part about this approach is that it works for college admissions, job placement, and success in life.

The sudden passing of my mother brought me back home. With the expansion of my team and new offices, I’ve doubled down on my mission to solve the education problems in this country, starting with my local community.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family.
