Collegewise did what they said they would. Our counselor, Kate, took care of all application planning and due dates, and worked with our child through the whole process. The parent updates and webinars were helpful and stress-relieving. Honestly the whole process was very hands-off for me as the parent, which was exactly what I needed. Our child was accepted to several top schools. The only minor complaint I have was the typo I found on her essay (even after several CW folks supposedly reviewed it). Even so, I couldn't have asked for a better experience as the parent.

Christopher Logan did an amazing job as my counselor. I worked with him for 3 years, and his never-ending support, encouragement, and positivity helped me thrive during the college admissions process. He maintains a realistic, yet hopeful outlook on admissions and blends his endless supply of knowledge with humor and affability to create the perfect counseling experience. I truly don't think I would have gotten into the schools I did without his help, and I can't think of anyone else that could do a better job.

My son, William has worked with the amazing CollegeWise counselor, Ms. Patti Miller for the last three years. Patti worked tirelessly with him to get him into his dream school of Columbia University in the city of New York. She was there for him every step of the way. We honestly could not have done it without her guidance, calmness, attention to detail and sound advise. We are forever grateful. Thank you so much to CollegeWise and Ms. Patti Miller.

My sons had an exceptional experience with Darcy. They were able to select institutions that otherwise we would have not known about. Money well spent!

Collegewise was great. Both of my children used their services. My son who is a rising Junior in college got into all the schools he was interested in pursuing. He is smart but has ADD and has difficulty prioritizing activities that he finds boring aka college applications. I turned over everything to his advisor at Collegewise, Sarah Turner, and she kept him on track. I have a very time consuming job and didn’t have time to be on top of him. It was well worth the money I spent to keep him on track without any involvement on my side. Then my daughter who is a rising Freshman also used Collegewise. My daughter is smart and very organized. She also worked with Sarah which was great, because they worked well together and she helped her organize her thought for all the essays. My daughter got into the majority of the schools she was interested in pursuing and got merit scholarships for all of them. So, it paid for itself with the scholarships she received. I would highly recommend Collegewise and Sarah Turner.

I would highly recommend Ernesto as a tutor! Ernesto was my success skills tutor, I met with him over 10 sessions. He was extremely organized, responsive, and a great person to talk to! The topics of our sessions were informative, fun, and helped me greatly throughout the school year.

I cannot help but call out how awesome Christopher Logan is at helping kids take their best shot at their dream schools! Our daughter consulted with Christopher on her college applications. Christopher made an immediate connection with her and had the keen ability ask the right questions to find out the interesting, meaningful, real, and quirky parts of who my daughter is. They then helped her to showcase the activities and parts of herself that would build a strong, clear and unique profile and help her stand out in the application process. Christopher was an expert in working with her to put all of that into writing when tackling the essays. I appreciate how their feedback empowered our daughter to dig into herself and think harder or differently, without ever telling her what to write. She knows herself better and what she wants from college because of this process. And, the results speak for themselves--she had so many top schools to choose from and is beyond excited to attend her first choice, Brown University, this fall! In addition, when it came time to compare offers, Christopher was invaluable in helping us secure additional financial aid. But probably the best is that Christopher is just an incredible human and person to talk to, super positive and encouraging, funny, thoughtful, completely on top of everything and a great communicator within and in between meetings with both parent and student. What a gift Christopher has been!

Stefanie and Nicole were incredibly helpful as I navigated the college readiness journey. The team at collegewise is thoughtful, patient and diligent. Stefanie was a pleasure to work with and her tutoring style was highly effective. Nicole's counseling was also highly targeted and had a meaningfully positive impact on my decision making process.
