New Harbor Capital Portfolio Company Blueprint Test Prep Completes Acquisition of Med School Tutors

New Harbor Capital announced today that its portfolio company, Blueprint Test Prep (“Blueprint”) has completed the acquisition of Med School Tutors (“MST”, “the Company”), a tutoring and training company primarily focused on preparing medical students for certification and licensure exams. This marks Blueprint’s second acquisition in partnership with New Harbor and is highly complementary with the Company’s recent acquisition of Cram Fighter last April.

Founded in 2006 and based in New York City, Med School Tutors was formed with a singular purpose: to revolutionize the way aspiring physicians prepare for standardized tests. The Company is a medical school tutoring provider, offering one-on-one online tutoring for the USMLE, COMLEX, Shelf Exams, Medical Coursework, and Admissions and Residency Advisement, as well as consulting services for medical schools. Since its founding, MST has helped thousands of medical students prepare for exams.

Through this acquisition, the Blueprint team of tutors will grow to over 300 individuals and include medical students, residents, and attendings from the top institutions in the country. Blueprint’s network of tutors leverages the Company’s unique platform of purpose-built solutions, including best-in-class content, individualized study planning tools, and comprehensive data analytics that affords tutors and learners nuanced insights and generates unrivaled results. 

“We are extremely excited to partner with Med School Tutors and expand our personalized tutoring and consulting services,” said Matt Riley, Founder and CEO of Blueprint. “This partnership represents the next evolution of online tutoring. We believe this innovation will unlock even more potential for our students and empower more students on the path to becoming physicians.”

Former Owner and CEO of Med School Tutors, Joe Covey, added “Joining Blueprint is a natural fit for Med School Tutors. Blueprint will take Med School Tutors to the next level in helping aspiring physicians on their journey.”
