Institutional Partnerships
International
School Partnerships
We work with international schools and educational organisations seeking a trusted partner to guide their students into the U.S. education system — becoming your in-house expert on American pathways.
Our goal is to become a school's in-house expert on American education — providing families with reliable guidance, clearer pathways, and hands-on support throughout the recruitment and placement process.
Rather than offering one-off advice, we help schools build a stronger, more structured pathway for students who are considering an American education.
Through our partnership model, schools offer their students access to specialist expertise across academic placement, student-athlete pathways, admissions guidance, visa support, and long-term planning.
For Sports Clubs & Academies
Sports Club
Partnerships
We partner directly with clubs and academies to make U.S. college placement a flagship service — giving your players genuine access to American universities and scholarships without any burden on the families.
We handle everything on behalf of your players and their families — evaluation, highlight reels, coach outreach, scholarship negotiation, visa coordination, and ongoing support once players arrive in the U.S.
Rather than a transactional referral service, we become your club's dedicated U.S. recruitment partner — providing co-branded materials, parent information evenings, and regular reporting so your club leads with confidence.
Elite club partners also gain access to our exclusive ICAP program — high-level campus soccer environments at partner universities that create a direct pipeline from your academy to American collegiate sport.
