We are thrilled with our son's success through this college application process and we attribute a big piece of that to collegewise. Our counselor, Charlie, was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and patient from start to finish. He coached not only our son but also his parents (us) with clear and consistent streams of communication. The organization was a huge factor in keeping our son moving through milestones with a sense of accountability - important for our family of procrastinators! Michael, test prep tutor, was equally wonderful and Tyler felt supported throughout. A completely worthwhile investment which I'd do in a heartbeat again.

Coming from a students perspective, I had no clue what I was doing regarding my college or my future. After the first meeting with my counselor (Margo Macready), I knew I was in good hands and could trust her. I ended up getting through a years worth of work and finally landed myself at UCSD to major in real estate an development. She helped me with everything and anything I needed. I am beyond grateful for this website and her.

Rebecca was a great match for our daughter Sloane. Rebecca immediately showed a knack for recognizing and highlighting Sloane's strengths and was great at helping Sloane where she needed it most (e.g., procrastination and analysis paralysis). Rebecca identified several schools that were not previously on our list. Sloane was accepted to 7 out of 8 schools she applied to and received good scholarship offers from 6 out of the 7 schools that accepted her. Sloane decided to attend Temple University to study architecture and she was awarded a generous, 4-year renewable scholarship. We are all confident that Sloane ended up with a great match for her college experience and that is what matters most to us. We were happy to have Rebecca's help on this journey and would recommend that others consider working with her.

Collegewise was worth the money and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking to apply to college. My counselor, Ali Springer, helped me so much through this process and I spent 1.5 years building my application and writing my essays with her. I truly learned so much in this process and I'm so grateful for Ali and all the help I've received from the editors who edited my essays. Ali helped me believe in my qualities again and put in so much effort researching colleges and advising me every step of the way. I'm forever grateful for all the lessons Ali taught me and would highly recommend Ali personally :)

Sarah and her team provided exceptional service, support, and resources from start to finish! Sarah’s personalized approach tailored to my son’s strengths ensured he showcased his best self on paper. Prompt communication and expert advice made navigating deadlines a breeze. Our son received several outstanding offers including his desired University and subject matter! We owe a lot of this success to Sarah’s support. We highly recommend Sarah and Collegewise for stress-free college prep and admissions!

I worked with Patricia on a GRE prep course and she went above and beyond at every step of the way to help me accomplish my goals of success on the GRE. Patricia is fantastic at accommodating and tailoring lessons to the needs and learning styles of her students. She truly has a passion for helping students through a growth based mindset not simply in a transactional manner like other tutors might. All in all, I cannot recommend College Wise and Patricia enough for all of your test preparation needs.

Our experience with college counselor - Lori Jones has been just awesome ! Thanks to Jackie Muralla, program director , who put us in touch with Lori Jones as our counselor . The process is very well placed that they match the personality of the child & their goals to the counselor . Lori was nothing but awesome , in her guidance, follow up & encouragement . My daughter was very comfortable, to discuss any matter with her . She was always available & kept us , parents, informed of every step . We did not have to do anything in college process, except swipe the CC . Kudos to the team & all the best .

We had read about the option of using a college counselor and after doing some research we decided on Collegewise for our oldest child. We were not prepared for all the things we did not know about applying to college with a Neurodivergent child. Our Collegewise Counselor Aaron Going really opened our eyes and helped us come up with the best plan for our son. It was life changing. I would highly recommend Collegewise. Aaron was so easy to work with and his expertise and patience helped us to guide our son in the right direction. We will be using him again for our 2nd child.
