I highly recommend AR Academic to any family with high school kids who need test prep…read more It starts with a diagnostic test taken without any prep, followed by a consultation with Mr. Michael. He helps you figure out which test (ACT or DSAT) is the better fit for your child, and together you map out a strategic plan from the start. From there, the program is well structured: a personalized schedule, weekly tutoring sessions, and mock tests every other week so students always know where they stand. What I really appreciated was how seriously the tutors take the homework. All materials are drawn from real past tests, and students are given assignments before each session. The tutors analyze that work and tailor their instruction accordingly, so every session feels targeted, not generic. My kids came home after each session with a clearer sense of what they needed to work on, and noticeably more confident. For AP prep, Ms. Amanda was wonderful. She kept my kids motivated even when the stress started to pile up, and her upbeat energy is exactly what they needed. As for results: both of my children scored in the 99th percentile on their tests, one on the ACT2024 and one on the DSAT,2026 and earned 5s across the board on their AP exams. We couldn't be more grateful.

Extremely disappointing experience. I contacted this company to inquire about hiring a college…read moreadmissions counselor, but the lack of organization and follow-through immediately raised concerns. No one answered the phone, so I left a voicemail. I also attempted to submit their online contact form, but it only went through after multiple unsuccessful attempts. After leaving several messages, I finally received a call a few days later. Unfortunately, the representative who called seemed unprepared and unable to answer basic questions about the company's services. She apparently had not reviewed the online questionnaire I completed and could not explain the owner's qualifications, the counselors' backgrounds, or their experience and success working with students. I was told that an initial meeting with the owner, Amanda, would cost $360. I was also told that we would then be matched with a counselor at a cost of approximately $2,800 for one year. Given those fees, I believe prospective clients should be provided with clear information about the qualifications and experience of the person conducting the consultation and the counselor assigned to their child. I asked for this information to be emailed to me, but I never received anything. I also had to repeat and spell my email address several times, even though I had already entered it on the company's online form. Based on my experience, I would not feel comfortable entrusting this company with something as important as my child's college admissions process. Before charging premium fees, the company should improve its communication, repair its online contact form, properly train staff to answer basic questions, and follow through when prospective clients request information. Based on my experience, I do not recommend this company. I would recommend that the business improve its organization, communication, staff training, and follow-through before taking responsibility for guiding students through something as important as the college admissions process.

I honestly can't recommend Collegewise highly enough. Working with Tara was the best thing to…read morehappen to me in the midst of my educational journey. I only wish I had know that specialists like Collegewise and Tara existed back when I decided to return to school. When I knew I wanted to pursue higher education at a four year university, I was skeptical I'd get in anywhere due to my part-time status at a community college and an embarrassing amount of W's on my transcripts. So you can imagine my astonishment when I was offered admission at nearly every school I applied to! This included top-tier UC research universities, private universities, and scholarships I never imagined I was capable of receiving! I could have never achieved this without Tara's genius approach to tackling my personal statement on the Common Application, guidance on choosing and answering the right insight questions from the UC system, and tackling the individual essays required for each private university. I can't thank Tara or Collegewise enough. Now my biggest problem will be choosing which university to attend! Trust me when I say I NEVER thought this was possible. When I first learned of Collegewise, I was convinced they were only for high school students and likely wouldn't be able to help me, an older student returning school after a long break. When I filled out a web form, someone called me the next day and connected me with Tara Wessel Swoboda, who turned out to be a Godsend and just the perfect fit for me. Tara, having been an admission counselor at many of the most prestigious universities in California, was highly knowledgeable about what qualities admissions counselors look for in an applicant. She brought out the best in me, turning what originally sounded like a stiff business letter into an essay that showcased my personality and unique qualities. If you're considering hiring a college admission service to help you on your path, I can't recommend Collegewise, or Tara, highly enough. Was it cheap? No. But honestly, is anything inexpensive when you want exceptional quality? With Collegewise and Tara at your side, you simply can't go wrong. It'll be the best investment you ever make in securing your own, or your son's/daughter's, educational future.

I usually don't post reviews, but am so inspired by the amazing staff at Collegewise that I feel…read morecompelled to share. Our daughter worked with Sandi last year to navigate the college application process and optimize her opportunities. From start to finish, Sandi and her team engaged with, motivated and partnered with our daughter, inspiring her to put her best foot forward and guiding her through the maze to find success. She's now through her first semester at her target school and loves it! I highly recommend Collegewise and believe the return is well worth the investment.

I didn't know it when I met him, but Justin was a game changer for me. I never knew the value or importance of receiving professional academic/career guidance. I can honestly say that I would not be nearly close to where I am today without Justin's guidance or support. He has helped me in my professional development through editing my resumes, interviewing skills, and most importantly, he saw my potential and helped me realize it too. His advice is honest and compassionate (though not necessarily what I always wanted to hear) and he wholeheartedly invested his time in me. Justin helped me transition through one of the most difficult times in my life between undergrad and post-undergrad at UCI. These days, I am proud to say I am at my top choice graduate program in occupational therapy. Whether it is college counseling or personal development, you couldn't be in better hands with Justin or his team at Premiere Prep.

The process of preparing for college applications was overwhelming, but the guidance we received made all the difference. Felicia, who worked directly with my daughter, was outstanding, supportive, knowledgeable, and always encouraging. She helped keep everything organized and made sure my daughter felt confident every step of the way. She was always there for my daughter when she needed her. Justin, the owner, has clearly built a wonderful program that truly supports students and families. We're thrilled that my daughter was accepted into the university she had been hoping for, and we're very thankful for their role in helping make that happen. Very Highly recommend.
