Our Story

The guidance we wish we'd had.

NextGen PreMed started with two first-generation premed students who didn't know what colleges were looking for. No one showed us how to present our experiences, prepare for standardized tests, choose the right courses, or pick extracurriculars that mattered.

Along the way, we made mistakes, figured things out, and learned what truly makes a difference. So we built the support we wish we'd had: practical, honest, and personal, like advice from an older sibling who's been through it all.

Our Mission

Your dreams haven't changed. Admissions have. We're here to navigate the new path so you never walk it alone.

NGPM was a great help throughout the college application process! The advisors helped with brainstorming ideas for essays, and I was always able to get feedback within a few days. The academic tutors are also very helpful and have made my senior year workload more manageable.
