2025 Update: Thanks to ACA for their ongoing community support in sponsoring the WHS Chap Band + providing a private info session just for band families. ACA also helped my son get accepted to top engineering schools BUT he decided on a smaller, private school recommended by ACA and is super happy there. Amazing, unexpected college/choice. Thanks all around, ACA! 🎵 🎺🎷Access College America stepped up to help the Westlake High School Chap Band when we needed it the most! The band received a special invitation to march in the 2024 Tournament of Roses Parade in Pasadena, CA. While a huge honor, this was a mega-expensive trip/undertaking for the band. Dale Price and ACA stepped up to sponsor the band (specifically our Rose Parade trip shirts for over 200 band students, directors & CHAPerones)! We are grateful to Dale & ACA for supporting our beloved Chap Band! Not only that, but ACA has been helping my band student with college selection & applications process. It's been a TREMENDOUS help because we had no idea what we were doing. ACA's connection to SAT tutoring was also incredibly valuable. The SAT assistance my son received helped him achieve an extremely high score. Applications going in this week, so fingers crossed! -- Julie Guillot, VP Fundraising, Westlake Band Parents
I had a great time with Alesha, she was a huge help with writing my college essays. I felt like she helped me with not just the essays, but also as a writer as a whole. She taught me many important writing skills that I used and noticed an improvement with at school. Her friendly demeanor always made our meetings fun and easy, I totally recommended Access College America, and especially recommend Alesha Walker.
John and Alesha were incredibly helpful to my college application journey. They streamlined the whole process and made me able to do all the little things I needed for my application, including the Activity List, Expanded Resume, Main Essay, and supplemental writings, with ease by creating a timeline that worked for me. I applied to 16 schools, yet even with such a large amount, they assisted me in revising all the writing I did for each school and were always willing to offer their time and guidance. I've already been accepted to 3 schools, and I know I would be far from this position if it weren't for ACA!
Ms. Gooden and Alesha Walker were very helpful when helping guide me through the college applications. Ms. Walker provided the most helpful advice for college essays, activity list, and supplemental questions. She honestly helped improve my overall writing skills. Ms. Gooden helped keep me on track by providing me with deadlines for different tasks. They truly make my application process a breeze and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them. Any counselor at Access College of America will be able to provide you with the best experience and guidance.
Bonnie is outstanding! We are so grateful for her time, talent, expertise, insight, encouragement, kindness , warmth and wisdom! She took what could have been an intimidating, overwhelming experience for our son and empowered him with the tools, support, and guidance he needed to navigate the process with confidence and grace. We have already engaged Bonnie to help our middle daughter. I highly recommend Bonnie and Access College America to all families considering a college consultant. We could not be more pleased and appreciative.
