​
Will I get a 100% Scholarship?
It is virtually impossible for us, or anyone else to predict the fiscal value of a clients scholarship. Be very wary of any companies who promise you a 100% Scholarship. Scholarship value is dependent on your athletic ability, your academic ability, a universities budget, and ultimately a coaches opinion of you.
​
Are there any other costs to consider?
Yes, there are. As a part of the process you will need to take an SAT test, complete the appropriate eligibility centre's, and pay for your U.S. Visa. Details of these costs are outlined on 'Our Service' page. You should also consider the costs of Flights to and from the U.S.A, Health Insurance, and money for social spending each year.
