Common Questions
Straight answers
- When should I start?
- Ideally two years before you want to enrol. Coaches recruit early, but we regularly place athletes on shorter timelines too.
- What academic level do I need?
- Requirements vary by division and university. Strong grades widen your options and unlock academic money on top of athletic funding.
- How much does it cost?
- The Scholarship Pathway is £2,995.00, the Las Vegas Showcase trip is £2,250.00, and the North Carolina Easter tour is £2,250.00 all-in. The Complete Journey — the full pathway plus your choice of Las Vegas or North Carolina — is £4,995.00. You will always know the full cost before committing — no hidden fees, no surprise add-ons.
- Can I do Las Vegas without the Scholarship Pathway?
- The showcase trip is open to athletes who are recruitment-ready. We will tell you honestly at your assessment whether you are ready for Las Vegas, or whether the Scholarship Pathway should come first.
- Las Vegas or North Carolina — which trip do I choose on The Complete Journey?
- Both trips are included as an either/or choice on The Complete Journey. Las Vegas is a big showcase week in front of hundreds of college coaches; North Carolina is a 7-day Easter tour playing and training at NCAA and NAIA colleges. We will help you pick the right fit at your assessment.
