Tutoring, Test Prep & College Admissions Counseling in Greenwich, CT
ConnectPrep is a Fairfield County firm that has tutored Greenwich families for 17+ years. Our tutors come to your Greenwich home — or meet online — for 1:1 Digital SAT & ACT prep, full-service college counseling, K–12 academics, AP support, and private school admissions, built around Greenwich High School and Brunswick & Greenwich Academy schedules.
Greenwich families have no shortage of tutoring options — most run a national curriculum that ignores what GHS, Brunswick, and Greenwich Academy students actually face: AP overlap in May, FCIAC fall sports, and a college bar where competitive applicants need 1500+. ConnectPrep is built around that reality. Every session is 1:1, customized to a diagnostic, and adjusted every two weeks; the same team that builds the test-prep plan also builds the college list and manages applications.

What SAT Score Do Greenwich Students Actually Need?
Connecticut administers the SAT to every public-school junior on SAT School Day, so most Greenwich High School juniors have an official baseline by spring. Independent-school students typically test on national dates. Either way, the competitive question is the same: what score does your student need for the colleges on their list?
| Score Range | Context | Typical Target Schools |
|---|---|---|
| 1500+ | 99th percentile | Ivy League and peer-tier universities |
| 1400–1490 | Strong, top independent-school range | Top-25 universities, strong merit candidates |
| 1300–1390 | Competitive | Top-50 universities |
| 1200–1290 | Solid baseline | Broad match range |
General Connecticut score context; we calibrate each student’s target to their specific college list during the free consultation.
Most families we work with are closing a 100–500 point gap between a baseline score and the competitive threshold for their target schools — exactly the range ConnectPrep programs are built to close. See how our Greenwich SAT program works →
College Prep, Grade by Grade
Greenwich families get the strongest results when they start early and stay consistent. Here’s how a typical ConnectPrep plan unfolds from middle school through senior year.
| Stage | Academic & Testing Focus | How ConnectPrep Helps |
|---|---|---|
| Grades 6–8 | Build core math and writing skills; ISEE/SSAT if applying to Brunswick, GA, or boarding school. | Subject tutoring, study-skills coaching, and private-school admissions support. |
| Grade 9 | Strong first-year GPA, course selection, early extracurricular direction. | Academic advising, executive-function coaching, a long-range course and activities roadmap. |
| Grade 10 | PSAT/PreACT, AP groundwork, a baseline Digital SAT diagnostic (ideal start: October). | Diagnostic testing, an SAT-vs-ACT decision, and the first structured test-prep block. |
| Grade 11 | Core SAT/ACT testing window, AP exams, college-list building — the most pivotal year. | 1:1 test prep to target score, school-list strategy, and the start of essay brainstorming. |
| Grade 12 | Applications, essays, interviews, final score attempts, financial-aid and decision strategy. | Full-service application management through decision day, plus interview prep. |
Most families start in 9th–11th grade, but we support students at every stage — including seniors mid-application. See our grade-by-grade advising →
In-Home & Online Sessions in Greenwich
In-home sessions
Tutors travel throughout Greenwich on weekday afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Sessions run 60–90 minutes.
Live online
The same tutor can move any session online during crew/sailing season, AP weeks, or school breaks. No separate online-only tier.
Diagnostic-driven
Every program starts with a full Bluebook diagnostic, then a weekly 1:1 plan re-paced every two weeks from practice-test data.
Practice testing
Full-length, Bluebook-aligned digital practice SATs throughout each program, with question-by-question review.
Most Greenwich public-school students test at Greenwich High School on Bluebook-supported Chromebooks; independent-school students test on national dates. We practice every student on the same device they’ll use on test day — so a missed week during FCIAC playoffs or AP season never derails the program.
