Beware of this organization. $3600 was a steep fee but we fell for the offer. Have come to learn…read morethat you don't necessarily need them and if you do want a service, there are many that are far more reasonable. But the worst is that they wouldn't listen to my daughters desire to attend a Christian College that would support her desire to be among a body of Christ Followers and seek to serve her God in whatever area that her gifts and talents might uncover. When they told her that her choices of colleges that we had visited were not a good choice for her because she didn't have the grades to get a lot of merit money and gave her a list of colleges, that after reviewing their websites, turned out not to be Christian Colleges, and their not paying attention to her priorities and desires. The husband that is a "hard sell" and turned off my husband from the beginning (I should have listened to his intuition) called and left a horrific voice message on my phone accusing my daughter of "not listening" and "going her own way". What a terrible way to talk to us. My daughter kindly wrote an email thanking Lana for her suggestions and tried to offer better insight into what she was looking for restating what we had already let them know was the criteria for college applications. My daughter (and I agreed) didn't want to work with them after they never apologized for the horrible voice message and we offered to pay them for what service they provided up till that time and to please reimburse us a fair portion of what we had prepaid when she was a sophmore. They spoke with us once and after finding out what we wanted refused to call us back (although promises were made) and wouldn't reply to any correspondence made by my husband or I. Don't be fooled, you can get merit money without their assistance and there are other companies that are way less expensive. And spread the word to beware of Lana and Bill Wally. They are nice when they are asking for your money but if you don't agree on something they won't hesitate to have all ethical practices fly out the door.

Terrible organization. I was admitted to second rate schools with a very high SAT score (2200+) and…read moreGPA (4.21) from a top-ranked high school. I was among the top 5% of my graduating class. They asked me to apply to schools much below my caliber, where I was clearly a candidate for colleges like Ivy leagues. Bill and Lana Wally have no professionalism. Bill Wally shouted at me over the phone because I was asking the essay-reader for too much feedback. The essay-reader furthermore does not help whatsoever--she is unable to provide help for churning out essay ideas, and just rearranges sentences, some even grammatically incorrect! My own mother, an English teacher, shook her head at the edits. Their conditions also change dramatically--they first guarantee that they'll help any siblings free of charge, and will help you with graduate admissions also free of charge. However, when the time came for my own sibling to apply, they denied help, saying they needed you to refer them to other customers. Terms and conditions are not steadfast in his organization. My younger sibling with similar SAT scores and GPA, was admitted to drastically better schools without any help! No help is better than Aid 101 with Bill and Lana Wally. I was admitted in engineering to UC Berkeley, and attended the school. This school is ranked higher than even MIT and Stanford in some engineering disciplines, suggesting that Aid 101 did NOT help in achieving results in the private school sector. Run away!

Please read this if you're considering this program…read more.. I am in finals week of my first semester of the accelerated associates program here. There are 7 classes you have to take in the first, 5 in the 2nd, 3 in the 3rd, 4 in the 4th, and 4 in the 5th. In my first semester, here is the good and the bad that I have observed: The bad: I have multiple classes from my local community college that I was told could be transferred over to make me program easier. They even said that I should go do another class at my community college before my Joyce program starts so that I didn't have to pay for it with them. They said that my program would be 15 months instead of 20 months. They said that people have kids and work full-time while doing this program. They said that they are flexible. All this is NOT the case. I found out later, (AFTER THEY SOLD ME THE PROGRAM, after I finished all enrollment requirements, and after I signed every enrollment document), that only one small class could be transferred over from my community college. I also found out that my program would not be 15 months, it would be 20 months. This was extremely disappointing because the transfer of credits and shorter program is what made me sign up for this program. Very strange miscommunication, if thats even what it was. Seems pretty big for a advisor to get wrong. I took this all to the dean, she did not care. All she did was ask me if I wanted to cancel my program. I was years and months into waiting to start this program at this point, canceling was not an option for me, especially with how much flexibility they claim to have, which is also not the case. I had to quit my full-time job, I don't even have kids and I still don't have time for anything. I'm barely getting by. I spend every waking hour of the day studying. I do not believe that there are people who have kids and work full-time while doing this program, I think they say it because it sounds good. If I knew about all of the bad before I committed to the program, I wouldn't have done it. I have given up so much mental health and physical health. Plus saying no to seeing family because I need to study is really sad. But I mean, it is an accelerated program anyway, but still wasn't expecting any of it due to the way they make it seem like sunshine and rainbows. The good: This is only my experience from the first semester. That being said, it is still absolutely doable. It is not impossible. And I have since changed my advisor (Doug) and he has helped me tremendously, leading me in the right direction now. There are many resources for for students from tutoring to one on one with your professor. They do weekly office hours where you can join a zoom and have any questions answered. You can reach out to them over email and they'll help you there (though sometimes they take kinda too long to reply to the point where you don't even need the answer to the question because it's too late, honestly). The material matches a lot of separate online resources that help with other study materials, like youtube videos. The academic schedule during the semesters (the first one at least), are pretty organized in my opinion and they do the same things every week. This is really nice for having a nice study schedule. They provide lots of material that is made for the quizzes and exams to help you practice and pass. The only thing I've struggled with is just having time to do it. Whatever is on your worksheets and slides, will usually be worded the same on the quizzes and exams. Sometimes, they even tell you exactly what questions are going to be on the quizzes and exams to help prepare you. They let you use a whiteboard during the tests too, which is nice for active recall, you can right down a bunch of stuff after you start your tests. I've also never had any technical difficulties on the cavas platform that they use, but if there is, they have 24hr IT support that responds fast. One time I was having an issue with respondus and my professor was very forgiving and relieved me of my late grade. I personally feel like the professors want success in the students. Some other random stuff: The platforms are easy to navigate. They always answer the phone. And the scrubs are cute, lol. Theres probably a lot that I'm missing here, maybe I'll add more later.
