EduAvenues results
These results and reviews come from EduAvenues programs for other schools and services. They are not Exeter admissions results, and no program can promise admission.
The ExeterPrep difference
The four questions Exeter parents ask us most, answered plainly.
An EduAvenues instructor, not software. Your student gets line-by-line notes on their Exeter essays, and you get notes on the parent statement, usually within 7 business days.
Applicants submit two essays of 200 to 500 words through the Exeter Applicant Portal.
Lessons follow Exeter's own application: the essays, the parent statement, testing, and the interview. Nothing is a generic boarding-school template.
The application includes a Candidate Profile, standardized testing, student essays, a parent statement, recommendations, transcripts, and an interview.
It is online and self-paced. Your student works in short sessions around classes, sports, and family time, with no fixed class to miss and a real instructor to answer questions.
Every applicant interviews, and a calm conversation takes practice. Your student rehearses with sample questions until talking about themselves feels natural.
Exeter requires an interview for all applicants.
How it works
Study on your schedule. Draft, submit for review, and revise with specific notes from an instructor.
Open a video lesson or written guide any time. Each one covers a part of the application your student is working on now.
Write a response, then submit it for review. Each response submitted for review uses one feedback credit.
An instructor returns line-by-line notes on what to keep, cut, and strengthen, usually within 7 business days. Questions about the notes never use a credit.
Instructor essay feedback on your Exeter essays and the parent statement. 6 instructor feedback credits, more at $25 each, usually within 7 business days.
