"Finding and engaging with Collegewise was truly a blessing for our family. From start to finish, the Collegewise team guided, inspired and motivated her to project the best version of herself and shoot for the stars. Thanks to them, she actually enjoyed the process and just completed her first semester at the school of her dreams. We are so thrilled with Collegewise that we are using them again for our twins as they approach the start of applications this next year."

"There are moments in life when the right person shows up at the right time for the right reasons. This is how we feel about my counselor at Collegewise. Thanks to our counselor's guidance and my son’s hard work, he has received multiple acceptances to his top college choices, along with scholarships. She has not just been a college advisor; she has become an integral member of our family. We cannot recommend the Collegewise team enough."

"College applications and the process can be intimidating and overwhelming to students and parents, especially if new to the process, with our counselor working with our family, the process was smooth, exciting and pleasant, even fun! We began in our son's Junior year of high school and our counselor worked with our son through until the end of his senior year of high school. Not only did Adam get accepted from his first-choice college, but he also received 5 additional acceptance options as well."

"We have two daughters. For both, we engaged Collegewise, and for both, we had exceptional experiences with our counselor, though in very different ways. As our children are quite different – extroverted/introverted -- the fit of the counselor was always one of our most important concerns. Throughout both interactions, our counselor kept us updated on progress against key milestones but balanced that skillfully with our daughter’s inherent desire to control the process and maintain a degree of independence."

"Collegewise has been a wonderful partner in helping my daughter achieve her dream of attaining admission to her top choice school. My experience as a parent working with Collegewise has been exceptional. The organized and systematic structure has greatly simplified the convoluted college admissions process, and helped alleviate a lot of stress off of the shoulders of my daughter and myself."

"Our counselor has been a godsend during our college application process. This was our first time to navigate this process in over 30 years. He was always ready and available to answer questions and respond to requests!! He and Collegewise are both fabulous!!!"

"Before engaging with Collegewise, the application process felt overwhelming and was creating tension within our family. However, by shifting the accountability to our children, our counselor empowered my twins to take ownership of their applications. We are incredibly grateful for the positive impact Collegewise had on our family."

"This is the second time we used Collegewise, and both experiences were great. Collegewise chose well-matched counselors for each of our children; I was amazed at how well they got our kids after the 1st few meetings. Our son was lost on the whole process of where to start, so overwhelming/anxiety-producing for him and for us. Our counselor not only minimized his stress, but enlightened him on the various places he could apply, encouraged his efforts, and inspired him to do more."

"We entered the college consideration and application process with anxiety, confusion, and just a little bit of hope. Following our first call with our counselor, the anxiety and confusion diminished and the hope increased. We're thrilled to be faced with several college acceptances that our son is excited about! I truly don't know how we'd have done this without Collegewise."

"My parents were unfamiliar with the college application process of today, as they applied over twenty years ago internationally. Collegewise, and my counselor, greatly helped increase my confidence in the application process and maximized my application to its fullest potential. Collegewise has helped me get into my favorite schools on my list."

"The idea of college prep/applications stressed me out so much as I had no clue where to start. Thankfully my mom signed me up for Collgewise. Collgewise has helped me in so many ways, one of the most memorable being their essay writing package. The essay they were able to help me create is the thing I am most proud of in my college application and I was even complimented on it in my acceptance letter from Kenyon College! I would definitely recommend Collgewise to any student feeling lost or overwhelmed with the idea of applying to colleges."

"' can say with absolute confidence that I would not be where I am today without my counselor. The college application process can be very confusing, but Ian was always there to help me with any questions I had and to guide me through the process towards a college that I love."

"This process can be scary and frustrating, but through it I had my counselor. I will be forever grateful for the advice, giggles, success and smiles and will truly always appreciate the help and contribution Collegewise had on my path to further my education."

"Collegewise was such an amazing experience for me. Going into the college application process, I was so scared and anxious about all the work to come. However, I was assigned to work with my counselor, and he helped me with everything, making the process very streamlined. I couldn't have done it without him, and I am so grateful to have had Collegewise as an option. Thank you x1000."

"My counselor has been such a tremendous help during my college application process. College apps can be so daunting, but my counselor's guidance has made it a LOT less stressful. I was able to get into one of my top choices, and I am excited to see what college brings my way! To anyone who is looking for an organized and thoughtful approach to college prep, be sure to check out Collegewise."

"I could not be happier with my experience. I joined Collegewise in my sophomore year and throughout the process, my cousnelor was there to support me by setting clear deadlines and assigning work. This allowed me to be done with all my applications much before the deadline. I would recommend it to anyone who finds the application process intimidating."

"'I'm a student who struggles with anxiety, and I was really, REALLY stressed about even the thought of applying to college. However, my parents signed me up for Collegewise, and after meeting my counselor, my worries were nowhere to be seen. Thank you, Liz [Collegewise counselor], you have changed my life :)"
