Step 2: recruitng Profile & highlight Video
When we are all on the same page you're ready to officially start the recruiting process.
Recruitment profile
We kick off by building a recruiting profile for you on our website. See this as your athletic and academic resume. Your recruiting profile is the go-to page for coaches to learn more about you.
View here an example of a recruiting profile on our website.
Highlight video
Your highlight video is your biggest piece of marketing material throughout this process. We put a lot of effort into making the perfect video for you as a good highlight reel is the main trigger for coaches to reach out to you. Check out an example of a highlight video.

Step 3: Introduction to Coaches
After setting up your recruiting profile & highlight video, it's time to start reaching out to coaches.
Target Universities
We don't want to randomly connect you with schools that aren't a good fit, so we start by creating a list of target universities that we want to reach out to. With our expertise and extensive network we make sure you get connected to the right coaches.
Interview preparations
When a coach is interested, they want to set up a meeting with you to get to know you better. We are here for you to get you prepared for your first conversations.
Follow ups
It's important that we help you manage the communication with the coaches and work with a timeline that works for you and the coach to make decisions. We are the middleman that follows up with the coach and with you to make sure everyone is on the same page.
Step 4: Scholarship offers & Decision making
The more you proceed to speak with the coaches, the more likely it will be that you will receive a scholarship offer. We are here to help you making the right decisions and help you receive the best scholarship offers possible.
University Visits
If you start this process early, you may get invited to visit the interested university for an official visit. This is the ultimate way to make the best decisions. However, most scholarship offers are accepted without a university visit.
Decision Making
Our goal is to establish a personal relationship with you and your family so we can help you making a decision based on what you're looking for. With our years of experience we know which school is a good fit for you and which isn't.
NLI & Scholarship Offer
After you make your decision it's time to officially commit. You will sign your NLI (National Letter of Intent) and your scholarship offer. We will help you go through these formalities.
Step 5: Support with Paper work
There is an overlap with all the paper work and the previous steps. The paper work part is boring, but crucial in the recruiting process.
With us on your side, you don't have to research each and every step. We take the lead and tell you exactly what to do.
Test Registration
We usually start with this at the beginning of the process. Together we determine which tests you need to take like the SAT or an English proficiency test.
Eligibility Center
Becoming eligible to compete at the college level is crucial to get recruited. We evaluate your eligibility beforehand and support you with the registration.
University application
Typically, we only apply to the university you have committed to. This means sending in transcripts, essays, and finalizing the university application.
Visa application
After acceptance, you will receive the I20 document. With this document we can start the visa application. We will apply for the F1 student visa.
Final Preparations & Support in College
Scholarship signed, accepted into the university, and your F1 student visa is approved. You're now ready to leave for America to start your college journey.
Final Preparations
You're starting a new chapter, and we know what awaits you. We will help you to prepare all the little things before your departure. Think about insurances, cell phone plans, bank accounts an more.
Support in College
In college, you're far away from your family and friends. But we're here close by to support you when you're in the USA. We follow your achievements but we're also here when things aren't going as planned. We want to make sure you're having the time of your life.
Transfers
Sometimes an athlete is looking for a new challenge or just a different environment. We can then help with the process of transferring to a new university.
