Where Are CollegeBound Students At Now?

 

What Our Students Are Saying

 
  • I loved working with CollegeBound

    The atmosphere at CollegeBound is so comfortable and supportive that seeking the help of the instructors never felt intimidating. I was encouraged by all the instructors and found them extremely helpful when quickly grading my score reports, turning them over the next day, and helping me schedule tutoring or more practice tests.
    —Lauren B.

  • CollegeBound is one of the most engaging tutoring experiences I have ever had

    Everyone is super friendly, and the tutors are dedicated to helping you receive the best score possible. I enjoyed my tutor sessions at CollegeBound because not only was I preparing myself for exams, but I was also having fun, and I think that’s important.
    —Bill M.

  • I have had nothing but great experiences with CollegeBound

    I feel like Joan and the tutors cater to what is best for me as an individual student rather than adopting one prep method for all students. They understand the wide spectrum of the way students learn and mold an individual study plan after getting to know the student.
    —Simran B.

  • CollegeBound pushed me to be the best version of myself!

    I was so pleasantly surprised when I realized the college counseling experience at CollegeBound was nothing like what I expected. Joan was always there to support me whether it was calling me late at night when I was overwhelmed by the stress of essays to calm me down or calling me with excitement to celebrate when she found out I got into my dream school.
    —Elise D.
