Hello There! We are CCA.
CCA is here to help students navigate the college selection process.
Why Cascade College Advisors?
At CCA, we take an approach of personal inquiry to help students and families navigate the college search process. By exploring a student’s academic interests, learning style and personal preferences, we can identify a variety of college environments where they can thrive. The focus is shifted from one of stress and confusion about college applications to one of self-understanding, directed research, and endless possibilities.
