What our past students said
“It was challenging but I enjoyed everything”
Sinethemba Cele
“I never thought I will ever be a student since I have a full time job and not having enough money to study further, but after a search about affordable college A.O.Y was the best for me I started studying and they were timed where I don’t understand the assignment but the fanatical student support team was always a there to assist, not forgetting the study group. Honestly speaking I can’t believe that I’m have finished my course and I have successfully completed my wish thanks again for those who kept me updated after submitting my assignment.”
