Our Story
Accepted Admissions has come a long way from an idea that seemed to help struggling college students complete their registration and admittance processes, to a company that consultation services to small- and medium-schools and organizations in the Chicagoland area. When Willie Williams first started out, his passion for education drove him to create a company that services all students, especially students of color, in their dream of graduating from college, and gave him the impetus to turn hard work and inspiration into a booming educational service. Accepted Admissions now provides curriculum development services, professional development workshops, educational materials to clients who are looking to support their underserved students. We now serve customers in the heart of Chicago and will look to serve clients all over the world and are thrilled to be a part of the college and career services wing of the educational industry.

Therefore, all Accepted Admissions LLC staff members are obligated to serve as models of personal and professional integrity; all our staff members are expected to act in good faith in all aspects of the job. Staff are expected to be open with one another, the clients and the Accepted Admissions LLC students.
