Overview

The Princeton Review helps students achieve "Better scores. Better schools." In 1981, company founder John Katzman prepared 15 high school students for the SAT with an intensive six-week course offering a systematic approach to achieving higher test scores. The Princeton Review now helps millions of students each year to navigate standardized tests and the college and graduate school admissions process through its courses, books, software and Web sites.

The Princeton Review, Inc. became a public company on June 19, 2001. Shares are available on the NASDAQ National Market under the symbol "REVU".

The company manages its business through three divisions: Test Preparation Services, Admissions Services and K-12 Services.

Test Preparation Services

The Test Preparation Division provides test preparation at 500 classroom locations in over 41 states and 11 countries, as well as admissions counseling, one-on-one tutoring, and online instruction. By combining cutting edge technology with the Company's test expertise, The Princeton Review has led the way in developing new products and innovative ways of using online tools to help students raise their scores on standardized tests. Students can now take their test preparation courses in the classroom, online, or mix and match as their needs dictate.

Admissions Services

The Admissions Services division of The Princeton Review empowers high school, college and graduate students with the most comprehensive resources to help them make the right educational and career decisions, while enabling higher educational institutions with a complete and integrated web-based solution, second to none, for managing and automating all phases of the admissions process. In addition, we empower guidance counselors from individual high schools to guide their students to the best career or college plan and measure the success all the way to the district or state levels.

The Admissions Services division provides the technology and content foundation for many constituents in higher education:

Helping Others

The Princeton Review Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was established in 1987 to address the test preparation needs of underserved students. Find out more about the Foundation's broad range of outreach and advocacy activities.

Fostering Change

The Princeton Review has always been an aggressive advocate of students' rights, promoting open and fair testing. (See Core Beliefs.) The Princeton Review presence fosters accountability (and intelligence) in the unjust world of standardized testing. TPR's history of involvement in controversial testing issues helps both present and future students.
