About Us

College Success Academy is a technology-driven start-up based in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.  We are a passionate team focused on solving problems faced by students.  Our vision is to provide students with a roadmap to de-mystify the college experience and prepare them with the proper mindset and habits necessary to make their transition from high school to college a success.

We recognize the anxiety faced by students while transitioning to college; we as professors, students, and mentors went through it ourselves. With great care, we have designed our products and services, so you can learn the success lessons from those who have gone before you.

Why do so many students struggle during their first year of college?

The main reason is their inability to manage the transition from high school to college academics.    This struggle has little to do with a students intelligence; it has everything to do with lack of education and preparation for the transition.

Who Will Benefit From College Success Academy?

This site is designed for high school students in their junior and senior years, as well as, college students early in their academic careers.   It also serves as a guide for parents who want to ensure their son or daughter gets the best advice during this exciting and stressful time in their lives.

Additionally, educators, advisors, and coaches who are concerned about their students and want to help them succeed during this journey will find the tools, resources, and programs offered on this invaluable.

Why Do Students Need College Success Academy?

Thirty percent of college freshman dropout after their first year!  And Surprisingly, only around half of the students who enroll in college end up graduating with a bachelor’s degree!

The Fact is College is taking longer and longer to get through with Less than 60 percent of students who enter four-year schools finish within six years.

The average time-to-degree at the (so-called) four-year college hovers at about five years, with only one-third of students graduating in four years and another third taking six or more years to finish.

Alarmingly, of the students that do graduate a third of students transfer before graduating adding thousands of dollars to the cost of their degree.

And the situation at community colleges is no better. Only fifty percent of students graduate within two to four years, while a full quarter of students are taking more than four years to complete their associate’s degree.

Behind these shocking facts and figures are millions of broken dreams, heartaches, and piles of mounting debt.  Your Student Doesn’t Have to Be One Of These Statistics!

It’s not their fault! Students and Parents just don’t realize the challenges faced in transitioning from high school to college.   The skills students learned in high school don’t transfer well to the unstructured college environment.

In fact, students are not just unaware of the challenges they will face in college; they are downright overconfident in their abilities.

According to CBS News, 71% of students surveyed rated themselves as being in the top 10% of students in their academic ability.  Amazingly, over 70% of students believe they are amongst the top 10%.  And the fact remains, even if they are in the top 10%, the approaches that got them there won’t keep them there in college.

We dedicate, so much time, energy, and money on getting into college, but we give little thought to how to transition, how to be successful in this new environment.

The Current Trial And Error Process Is Just Too Costly!

The reality is that Every College Student can succeed academically and obtain a top GPA.

The simple reason why so many college students struggle is that they have not learned how to transition from the structured high school environment to the unstructured college academic environment.
