Student Athletes

Playing athletics at the university level is an amazing opportunity. It allows you to compete with some of the most talented athletes in the world, opens many doors professionally, and requires you to quickly learn strong time-management skills. It can also be a great source of financial aid.

M*Power provides specialized athletic counseling services to address the unique admission needs of student athletes. We guide prospective student athletes and their families on a step-by-step path of learning of what the recruitment process entails, how to stand out to coaches and when student athletes should be making their moves to ensure they receive the best opportunities with your best fit schools for both athletics and academics.

We use a suite of proprietary tools to objectively evaluate the student’s athletic ability and determine the optimal list of universities where the student athlete would succeed in getting recruited as well as optimizing financial aid packages. Of course, this set of activities needs to overlay on top of the academic process for university admissions. Hence, why we encourage student athletes to begin their process 2.5 years prior to heading off to university.
