Testimonials
We only have one goal: to help our students.
We are SO proud of them and want to share their stories! Hear what they have to say about our College Admission Counseling Program.
“The counselors at the Princeton Review embraced every/any inquiry of mine with open arms and helped guide me through this confusing, and sometimes overwhelming, college application process. My counselors were not just interested in me as a client but as person and really got to know me and so tailored their suggestions and advice to make my application portray the real me in the best way. My counselors remained honest when reading my essays, looking over my résumé, and when giving me advice. They have been through the college application process as both applicants and readers in the office of college admissions so their insight and advice was always valuable and applicable to me. I am extremely grateful and satisfied with the attention and guidance I received from my counselors from the Princeton Review.”

“I had a PHENOMENAL experience with The Princeton Review program. I can’t express with words how much I enjoyed and appreciated the time spent with my College Counselor and Coach. The speed at which they adapted to my unique situation and applied their knowledge to my applications was outstanding!! They stuck with me and gave vital advice well after all of my admissions decisions arrived so as to ensure I received all the help I needed. The work ethic of the people in this program goes far beyond what I expected, and I can’t imagine ever making it through this strenuous process without their guidance and support. I received a total of somewhere around $200k in merit scholarship offers!”
