The Class of '26 College Admission Decisions Are Official!

Marla Platt • April 30, 2026

ADMISSIONS ACHIEVED!!  Here are some of the colleges our students have been admitted to

To every AchieveCoach family celebrating this spring — CONGRATULATIONS! 🎓

This year's students earned admission to 44+ colleges and universities, including some of the most competitive schools in the country. Together they secured more than
$5 million in merit scholarships and awards.

But here's what I'm most proud of: every single one of these students found a college that truly fits — academically, socially, and financially.

That's what AchieveCoach is all about. ❤️ 👍🏼

This year's admit list includes:


Cornell • Tufts • Boston College • Northeastern • Villanova • Tulane • Washington University in St. Louis • U.S. Naval Academy • Fordham • Syracuse • UMass Amherst • University of Pittsburgh • University of Miami • and 30+ more!

If your family has a junior starting to think about college, I'd love to connect. Spots are limited.
