WHAT STUDENTS SAY
XAVION, THOMAS STONE HS
I loved my experience with IYA. It really helped me with making the college application so much easier as well as school. Because of the things I did with IYA in class this year I have barely had to do work because all of our assignments are things that I have already done with IYA. Also my writing coaches were so amazing and nice they really helped me understand how an essay should be formatted and that no essay is perfect and can always be looked over gain. I hope to stay in contact with everyone I have met through IYA in the future

IMPACTdmv has really helped me with my whole college application experience. Ive learned a lot of new things and I feel like I would have been very lost and behind with out this program. My writing coach has helped me improve my story telling skills. For example how to lay out a story so it can be organized and eye catching. I have gotten into my number one school, Winston Salem State University, with the help of IMPACT.
ANGELA, CHARLES HERBERT FLOWERS HS
The IYA Program is an awesome program. Not only did the program help me with my college essays and applications, but it also helped me to have more confidence in my writing and myself as a whole. I want to give a shout out to Ms. Kyla for helping me to write the best essays ever, and I want to give a shout out to Ms. M for pushing me to do my best.
