Welcome!

Welcome to the College Prep Mom blog. This is the blog for the College Prep Mom website.

Kimberly Coleman, founder of College Prep Mom

I’m Kimberly Coleman, an NYC wife and mom of two teen sons. I have also been a professional lifestyle content creator (Mom in the City) for over seventeen years.

I graduated from NYC’s Columbia College back in 1995. A lot has changed in the college application and admissions process since then. 

My oldest son graduated from Townsend Harris High School in June of 2022. (It’s #1 in New York/ #19 in the nation.*) Due to the school’s guidance along with my access to various parenting “experts”, the college search process was pretty painless for our family.

I agree with Horace Mann, a promoter of public education, that “Education…is a great equalizer” and I think that higher education should be available to anyone who wants it. 

That is why I look forward to helping you lessen the stress of college planning – parent to parent!
