Your College Roadmap

We know college is important to you, which is why it is important to us, too. BGGA College Planning & Placement has decades of experience finding the right college for students.
BGGA College Planning & Placement works with all Academy students to create an individualized roadmap to reach their goal of studying and playing their sport at the collegiate level. This is accomplished through college planning, athletic recruiting, SAT / ACT / TOEFL registration, academic support and NCAA compliance education.
