PERSONALIZED GUIDANCE FOR EVERY PART OF THE COLLEGE ADMISSIONS PROCESS, FROM IMPROVING TEST SCORES TO CONFIDENTLY SUBMITTING APPLICATIONS
College admissions has changed.
Between shifting test policies, competitive admissions, packed student schedules, and endless advice online, it’s hard to know what actually matters and what can wait.
Many families arrive here unsure where to start, how much test prep is enough, or how today’s decisions affect college options later on.
The goal is not to do everything at once.
It’s to get oriented, make thoughtful choices, and build a plan that fits your student.
That’s where clear guidance makes a difference.

THE WAGNER PREP DIFFERENCE
Wagner Prep offers personalized support for students and families navigating the college admissions process.
Our work is rooted in genuine connection and thoughtful guidance, not rigid programs or one-size-fits-all plans. We are a team of experienced educators who put students first, build strong relationships through preparation and accountability, and communicate clearly every step of the way.
There is no fixed playbook. Plans are shaped around the student in front of us and adjusted as goals and circumstances evolve. Students receive individualized instruction that adapts as needs change, and parents gain a trusted partner who helps make sense of testing, academics, and college planning without adding pressure.
Whether a student is preparing for their first SAT or ACT, strengthening grades, or refining college applications, we meet them where they are and build a clear, supportive plan around their strengths.
What Parents Say
I have used Wagner Prep the last two years for both my children. They both had a fantastic experience with SAT tutoring as well as specific subject tutoring for school. Their tutors are attentive to each of their needs and specialize each lesson so that they learn to the best of their ability. My older daughter reached out to her SAT tutor this year with a question about her IB math class, when she could not answer her question, within minutes she was able to find her a tutor for the next evening and set her up a session. My daughter walked into her midterm, two days later confident, knowing she knew all the material! Any tutor we have come in contact with has gone above and beyond, both of my children have had great success with Wagner Prep!

Wagner Prep is a hidden gem you will be happy to have found. They have a superb team who get to know your child so they can be paired with the right tutor as they prepare for the SAT. The tutors and my child developed a great rapport and my child felt better prepared and confident taking the SAT. The tutors send the parents weekly updates on what was worked on and the progress your child is making and what areas they need to continue working on. Wagner's College Admission Planning is outstanding. The process they have in place is truly geared to make the college application process less stressful for everyone. They are the GPS system that will navigate you and your child through the entire process, with coaches perfectly matched for your child, giving you information on colleges you wouldn't have thought about and working with your child through the essay process. Most of all, the people at Wagner are some of the finest people you will come across and who genuinely want to see your child succeed.
