Turning High School Athletes Into College Recruits
Do you want to pay the most you can for college? Of course not, but most will. Why? Because most families don’t know how to maximize their scholarship award.
While we specialize in athletic-based awards, the one scholarship award that athletes control best is the academic-based merit award.
How important are SAT”s? To college applicants, they are very important for admissions. But to the colleges, how important are they? This New York Times has a great article about what some colleges are doing to improve their college ranking.

For each school you eventually apply to, there will be hundreds of student’s with comparable GPA’s and SAT’s.
Every student athlete needs a student athlete profile, the essential tool for catching a coach's eye.
