I worked on ACT review with Tanner Reive and had a great experience. He always motivated me and made studying less of a task. Tanner is friendly and approachable. Working with Tanner raised my ACT scores and I am looking forward to meeting with him in the future.

Tanner helped me prepare for my SAT and helped me raise my score by over 100 to get a 1490. I would highly recommend using him and Collegewise to get desired results.

I had Tanner Reive as my tutor for the March SAT, and will be using him again for my next test in August. He was extremely helpful in making sure I understood all the content, especially the areas I struggled in. I feel his tips and tricks definitely translated to my test, as the test went much smoother because of them. I highly recommend using Tanner as a tutor!

My son worked with Aaron Going at Collegewise on his college applications and did a great job helping him with each step of the process. He helped my son create a comprehensive list of schools for consideration and then asked key questions that helped my son rank the schools. Throughout the application process, Aaron offered valuable feedback on his essays and in a timely manner. Finally, he was very helpful providing insight into whether or not my son should submit his SAT scores. In the end, my son got into his #1 school.

I had a great experience using Collegewise. My counselor, Aaron Going, was a huge help and he assisted in me getting into my top choice school, Boston College. Throughout our time working together, he was incredibly responsive and kind. His help allowed me to produce a college application that I was very pleased with. I highly recommend Collegewise and more specifically my counselor, Aaron Going.

Christopher helped my daughter Anika navigate the difficult process of college prep and counseled her with seamless ease of a seasoned professional. He is a good listener and mentor. He made her explore the creative side of her personality and inspired her to confidently present her ideas to the colleges of her choice. He laid emphasis on getting the best of her abilities channeled into a narrative that reflected in the final outcomes of her applications. Thank you very much Christopher for being a good guide to her in this entire process from beginning to end. We will always remember you for your professionalism and help for Anika
