Expert college admissions and academic coaching from
a 5x Ivy League graduate who knows the journey from
every angle: she’s walked it five times.
If you’re investing in your student’s college education or your institution’s student success programming, you need more than just admissions support. You need a partner who understands that getting in is only the beginning.
ExcelAid Prep was founded by Sandra Okonofua, a five-time Ivy League graduate with degrees from Dartmouth College, the University of Pennsylvania, Harvard University, and Yale University (twice). As a Licensed School Counselor with 11+ years of education experience, Sandra brings both lived expertise and professional credentials to every family and institution she serves.
ExcelAid Prep is led by Sandra Okonofua, a 5x Ivy League graduate, Licensed School Counselor,
and Yale PhD Candidate with over 11 years in education. Whether you are a family, a school,
or a government partner, there is a program built for you.
You want your student to succeed, not just gain admission. You’ve seen the statistics: students drop out after freshman year, struggle with the academic rigor, or graduate without the skills they need to thrive. ExcelAid Prep addresses these concerns head-on.
Elite admissions and measurable academic growth.
Our students have gained admission to Harvard, Yale, Johns Hopkins (with full scholarships), UC Berkeley, UVA, and NYU.
More importantly, they’ve improved SAT scores by 150-300 points, raised grades by 2-3 letter grades, and developed the confidence to handle whatever college throws at them.
If you’re a high school administrator, college access organization, or university looking to improve student outcomes, you understand the challenge: retention matters just as much as admission.
