SPORTS SCHOLARSHIPS
Need help securing a sport scholarship?
Sports scholarship in the US are from assessing a student athletes ability in that sport from in person evaluation, video evaluation and/or sporting achievements. The most common sports in the US are American Football, Basketball and Baseball, however there are 27+ sports (and growing) that you can get a sport scholarship in. At Sports Unlimited we have experience achieving sport scholarships in 22 of the 27 sports in the US university systems.
Not all universities in the US can give 100% sport scholarships. Each division, school and/or sport has different funding for scholarships. A full scholarship as well as a partial scholarship is possible. A full scholarship is one where the respective student-athlete is 100% fully funded to attend that university/college. A 100% “Full” scholarship normally covers Tuition, Room & Board as well as a meal plan. Since some universities have different funding structures they might offer a partial scholarship. A “Partial” scholarship is one where only a portion of your tuition, room & board, or meal plan is funded. Sports Unlimited has experience with both achieving 100% full scholarships as well as partial scholarships, ranking from 30-90%.
