Don't Just Take our Word For it

"THERE IS NO DOWN SIDE. PERIOD. Knowing what I know now, there is absolutely no reason not to take this step. The access to our advisor's knowledge, experience, perspective, holistic approach, and passion for the player’s success was worth far more than anything we could have paid for it."


"I didn’t even know what I wanted before meeting with A2A. I knew I wanted to play baseball in college. But I didn’t know what that really meant. And I didn’t know what I had to do to prepare."

"A2A has done a great job of helping us use a structured methodology for understanding what was really important in my son’s college career – both academically and athletically.  Their availability to answer questions, explain processes, and give advice gave all of us a comfort level we never expected. There was never any doubt that A2A had our son's best interest at heart. We never felt pushed in any direction."



"It was a very personal experience. Everything is for your personal benefit, and to help you. They helped me get a list of colleges together that fit what I was looking for."



Frequently asked questions

What is the A2A Academy?

The A2A Academy is a comprehensive, unbiased college prep program tailored specifically for student-athletes. 


Developed by former college athletes turned college counselors, the A2A Academy offers 360-degree support for families, covering athletics, academics, financial aid, personal fit, and beyond!

Is the A2A Academy a college recruiting service?
While our program delves into recruitment extensively and offers personalized support throughout the college recruiting process, we prefer to refrain from labeling ourselves as a recruiting service. As former college athletes, we recognize that only about 20% of a student-athlete's college experience revolves around athletics. Therefore, we emphasize preparing our clients for success in the remaining 80% as well.

By focusing on all aspects of being a successful student-athlete, the A2A Academy has established itself as the premier full-suite support program for families with student-athletes aiming to continue their athletic careers in college.

Our mission is centered on setting young people up for success not only during their college years but also for the next 40 years of their lives.
Does the A2A Academy guarantee scholarships?

Does the A2A Academy guarantee scholarships? No. I wish we had magical powers, but unfortunately no one can guarantee scholarship money.

Can we help with scholarships?Absolutely. Our program is designed to help student-athletes optimize their scholarship opportunities on AND off the field to create the best possible financial packages for our students. Our students, on average, are awarded almost double the national average scholarship amount - which just so happens to also be nearly 4x the cost of our most expensive program. 
How do I get started with A2A Academy?

To get started with the A2A Academy, please connect with us HERE.

We'll be able to talk more about what you want to accomplish, how we can help you get there, and when it makes the most sense to start. Once we've chosen a start time, we'll set up the onboarding process and you'll be on your way!

Note: Due to the limited number of seats available and the volume of applications, we are only able to accept a specific number of enrollments each semester. This is to ensure that we can provide the highest quality support to those student-athletes and families enrolled. 

Why should I enroll my child in the A2A Academy?

Attending college is an investment that requires significant time, money, and effort. Even more so when considering an athletic path. Although it is possible to manage this process yourself, most families do not have the time, energy, or insight to effectively pursue the goals they truly desire. 


Families choose to work with the A2A Academy primarily because we provide a proven method, cadence, and support system to help our student-athletes put their best foot forward on AND off the field. We can focus on helping you optimize your college options while you can focus on the most important thing - being a family.

How much does the A2A Academy cost?

The short answer is "it depends", but we're big on transparency at the A2A Academy so instead of giving you a wide range of costs that spans across four years of high school, we encourage you to fill out our price quote form at the link below to get your personalized quote. 


Each quote comes with more detailed information about our Academy program, and an opportunity to meet with one of our advisors to discuss the program - and cost - in more detail.
