Sports Scholarships USA

Sports Scholarships USA targets recreational or amateur sports men or women of low, average, and high level ability. Your current abilities are less important than your commitment and potential.

BasketballThe program allows Australian students to utilise their sporting skills to gain a University education in the US often for less than it costs to study in Australia. Aussie students are in high demand at American universities.

Each candidate must attend a unique ‘International Showcase' event in the USA in July each year attended by coaches from over 70 American universities. The objective of the showcase is to promote a dynamic interaction between international candidates and American university coaches with the purpose of assessing each individual's skills & abilities. The ultimate goal is to determine what scholarship offers will be made to each candidate.

Our USA partner, International Doorway to Education & Athletics (IDEA) has established strong links to over 70 American institutions allowing Aussie students to obtain benefits traditionally limited to American residents.

They maintain:
A 100% success rate in obtaining scholarship offers for participants at American institutions.
A ‘no-risk’ policy for the participant. In other words, if the pre-established conditions are not met or if the participant does not receive the specified scholarship offers, a full refund of the amount paid by the participant is provided.
