Hong Kong Couple Sues Admissions Consultant For $2 Million After Sons Rejected From Harvard

Posted on October 12, 2012 by Jeff

A Hong Kong couple is suing an “Education Consultant” for the $2 million that they paid to get their sons into Harvard. The suit alleges that Mark Zimny of IvyAdmit Consulting Associates asked Gerald and Lily Chow to entrust money to him to donate on their behalf to improve their sons’ chances at admission.   Zimny’s attorney denies the charges. From their web page, it seems that IvyAdmit specializes in consulting for international clients. While the Chow’s sons didn’t get into Harvard, they were accepted into other Ivy League universities.
