Wise(r)net is here!

Written by Collegewise Staff | 6.26.20

We’re so proud to unveil our brand new digital platform, the Wise(r)net.

Over the last 20 years, we’ve made decisions by asking ourselves how to improve and even re-invent college counseling, tutoring, and test prep. How can we make this process clearer, empower students on their path, and remind families of the big picture? How can we continue to blaze new trails and use the power of our experience and knowledge to create greater insight and more tools for parents and students? 

We also listened to the parents and students we work with when they told us they needed an easier way to keep track of everything. No service or software existed to meet those needs, so we decided to create it ourselves.

Wise(r)net is the direct result of our desire to pair the unique, complex, human side of counseling and academic development with new, advanced technology to provide families with a roadmap for progress and clear expectations. It’s a leap forward in helping students reach their potential and own their next life chapter. It adds certainty to an uncertain process.

For now, our tutoring and test prep families are invited to meet Wise(r)net, and we’ll invite counseling families to do the same in 2021. Through Wise(r)net, students and parents will have access to resources and guidance that will allow them to make more informed decisions. They’ll log into the system to communicate with tutors, view their current tutoring hours tracker, review session notes and tasks, schedule sessions, and add courses or tutoring hours. Wise(r)net also syncs with text messaging services, so parents, students and tutors can communicate via text, and all conversations are saved in the platform.

It might seem mechanical, but we believe in lessening stress, providing clarity, and empowering students – and this platform enables us to do just that. Wise(r)net marks a new chapter for Collegewise and the families who trust us as partners in their admissions journey.
