Valeria's Story
"Uprooted Academy changed my life. I'm extremely grateful for all the knowledge. Before being part of Uprooted Academy, I felt lost and scared as a first-generation student applying to college, but after Uprooted I felt AMAZING and gained all that confidence back. I will forever be grateful to Uprooted Academy for pushing me to keep trusting in myself. I am now able to say that I got admitted to the university of my dreams: Columbia University. Thank you, Uprooted Academy."
EVERYONE AGREES!
"Tiffany anticipates the needs of these students because she was this student."
Jason, Class of 2022
Tiffany is the big sister I never knew I needed. Despite it being a digital program I feel like I know her and we are friends.
Soeun, Alumni
Tiffany helped me prioritize which college will best fit me, rather than being swayed simply by rankings.
Relatable for the student and a blessing to the staff. Students now come prepared to meetings and meetings are productive and actionable.
I recommend this program to others who are not fully familiar with the college process. I am thankful for the assistance and ease of Uprooted Academy in assisting my students.
