"A ten-fold savings on our initial investment"
“My wife and I were very pleased with the services that Donna provided to all five of our children. We didn’t have to do a thing. It was all taken care of by Donna! . . . My final savings in college tuition was close to $300,000, a ten-fold savings based on our initial investment. I highly recommend College Prep Tutors.”

Why College Prep Tutors?
As Connecticut’s trusted college prep tutors, our proven results come from the CORE VALUES that have guided us for 20 years:
Expertise:Every college prep tutor holds an advanced degree and extensive experience teaching tweens, teens and young adults.
Personalized Attention: CPT is privately owned by Dr. Donna Risolo, who personally oversees every student’s college prep tutoring and private college counseling. While other firms have scaled, we remain boutique by design.
A Dynamic Approach: We are educators and experts, not just tutors. We constantly refine our SAT and ACT prep strategies and college admissions methods to deliver the best outcomes. As a seasoned college admissions consultant in Connecticut, Dr. Donna stays current on admissions trends so every family gets guidance that works.
Lifetime Relationships: We build long-standing relationships with students and parents, guiding them through the full admissions cycle: test prep, college selection, essays, applications and scholarship negotiation. Our support continues through college, first job applications and graduate school.
