What is A2A Academy?

A2A Academy is a comprehensive college consulting program for student-athletes. we equip students and families with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to take control of their journey - from applications and athletic recruiting to financial planning and life beyond sports.

That's why we go beyond the traditional approach of athletic recruiting alone, and seamlessly integrate expert college consulting with specialized athletic recruitment strategies to offer a comprehensive and personalized pathway to success. 

We understand that your child's journey through college is not just about athletics - it's about realizing their full potential in the classroom, on the field, and in life.  We're focused on our student-athletes' 40-year success, not just their four-year college careers.

“This was the first time someone in my [sport] career talked me about something other than my sport. Coaches have told me that school is important, but my advisor was the first person to really talk to me about it and show me what it means to look at colleges for more than just sports.”

FAQs

  • 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’re truly aiming for. 

    Families choose to work with A2A Academy primarily because we provide a proven method, guide, 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.

  • While our program delves into recruitment extensively and offers personalized support throughout the college recruiting process, we do not define ourselves as a recruiting service. We recognize that only about 20% of a student-athlete's total college experience revolves around athletics, and therefore we know that our support has to also emphasize the other 80% of a student-athlete’s experience.

    By focusing on all aspects of being a successful student-athlete, A2A Academy has established itself as a 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 for the next 40 years of their lives, not just their college careers.

  • 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 in order to create the best possible financial packages for our students. Our students, on average, are awarded roughly double the national average scholarship amount.

    Note: Due to the limited number of seats available, 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. 

“It was a very personal experience. Everything is for your own personal benefit and to help you. They helped me get a list of colleges together that fit what I was looking for on and off the court.”
