Webinar: Engineering The Perfect Recruiting Process – Thursday, Aug. 13th, 8PM

What is the difference between the high school athlete that gets recruited to play in college and the one who does not?

Rising College Costs: Invest in Your Future Now!

Among the myriad of financial decisions a family will make, the investment in a college education is one of the most expensive. According to the College Board, the average cost of tuition and fees for the 2014–2015 school year were $31,231 at private colleges, $9,139 for state residents at public colleges and $22,958 for out-of-state residents attending public universities.

As a student-athlete, what can you do now to try and offset some of these costs? ...
