Testimonials
"This college tour showed me many possibilities for my future. I learned many different school options from various colleges in different states and learn what I need to do in order to get accepted into them. A lot of the colleges I had never been to or knew about and now I'm considering them as an option, not only has this college trip taught me about different colleges but it also taught me about staying focused in school and not allowing anything from stopping you from chasing your dream. I know more now than ever that college is extremely important because they prepare you for later and everything in life. In life you need school and my education is the key to my success I truly thank you for giving me the chance to attend this trip."

“It is my desire to attend the YCA University tours. This tour will give me the opportunity to expand my horizons at looking into out-of-state colleges. Also, this tour will allow me the chance to interact with a copious amount of potential college bound students.”
