Testimonials

  • William Phemister image

    “I absolutely love this! Originally I went back to school at 25 because I just couldn’t afford it and then they say “oh here’s your financial aid” but you have to wait 3 months and it’s just that I can’t do that. And then I find Frank, and the entire reason I can get my bachelor’s degree is because your service exists.”
