Neha Gupta

Neha Gupta is a valedictorian, best-selling author, TEDx speaker, and nationally recognized expert in college admissions. As a proud South Asian entrepreneur and minority female business owner, Neha deeply understands the cultural prestige placed on education — because she’s lived it.

A graduate of Rice University and the University of Pennsylvania’s Graduate School of Education (in partnership with Wharton), Neha blends elite academic insight with real-world admissions strategy. 

Her parents, both graduates of top institutions like IIT in India, have founded schools and led educational ventures — making education not just a value, but a legacy in her family. Her team of 10 consultants work tirelessly to help achieving students get results into top universities.

Over the past 16 years, Neha has built College Shortcuts into one of the most established and trusted admissions firms in the country. 

Her mission is simple yet powerful: to help high-achieving families — especially South Asian families in STEM and business — take the guesswork out of the college process, and get the results they deserve.
