The Story Behind A2A

We know how you feel because we've been there before. That's why we've developed a program specifically designed by student-athletes, for student-athletes.

How Reid Turned His Story Into The A2A Academy

Crafting a program that leaves former athletes SAYING, "I wish this existed when I was in high school!"

I've always known that sports would be a significant part of my life. Growing up, I dreamed of playing college sports, and I vividly recall feeling anxious about second-guessing every decision I made in high school regarding my college opportunities. Did I attend the right camp? How should I approach this coach? Am I fulfilling the academic requirements necessary to play sports at the next level?

My school counselors were overworked and lacked expertise in college sports, while most "recruiting" services seemed more focused on using my efforts to attract other desperate families to their website rather than providing useful guidance on navigating this process.

After attending four schools in four years and ultimately giving up the sport I loved after just two, I realized there had to be a better way to support student-athletes and their families. Following years of schooling, working, and feedback, the A2A Academy has emerged as one of the premier programs to assist student-athletes and their families as they navigate one of the most critical decisions of their lives to date.

“Hearing from my advisor about their own experience in athletics helped me understand the importance of picking a school for more than athletics. My advisor had reached the highest level of college sport that I wanted to reach, and still spoke about their academics and personal experiences. That showed me it mattered in my decision.”

Three Simple Words

EDUCATE

Education is the core of everything we do. The more our families know, the more they can achieve. 

EMPOWER

We empower our student-athletes to advocate for themselves when pursuing their best-fit schools. 

COMMIT

Our student-athletes commit to the classroom, commit to themselves, and ultimately commit to a school. 

Our Superpower

We've designed our program to seamlessly integrate both athletic and academic support into a cohesive and comprehensive curriculum. Unlike other companies that specialize solely in either athletic or academic guidance, we pride ourselves in offering the best of both worlds.

Our dual expertise allows us to provide a holistic and tailored approach that addresses the unique needs of student-athletes, propelling them towards success both on the field and in the classroom
