IJGA doesn’t just help students learn how to play golf – we also help them get into college.

In fact, IJGA’s approach to college placement is so effective, our students have a nearly 100%

college acceptance rate and have received over $51 million in scholarships.

Golf may not have the high profile of other college sports, but

there are thousands of educational scholarships available for

young golfers, both men and women, looking to attend college.

In fact, there are currently 1,970 golf scholarships available for

male students, and 1,788 for female students.

Competition for placement

on college athletic teams

can be fierce, requiring

students to have an edge

over the competition. IJGA’s

training courses and student

resources provide that edge,

helping our students get

into such prestigious golf

programs as Georgia Tech,

Princeton, Dartmouth,

Oklahoma State University,

Texas A&M, Yale, Notre

Dame, and more.

In addition to providing training to young

golfers from countries around the world,

IJGA also helps students get into the college

of their dreams through:

• Honest and realistic assessments of

current golf and academic standing,

and ways they can improve.

• Assistance understanding what

coaches, schools, and organizations

look for in potential recruits.

• Clear, long-term game plans for the

recruiting process.

Of course, there’s more to getting into college than just

athletic performance. To make sure students are prepared

for all the steps of applying to college, IJGA provides a

calendar of important dates, from SAT and ACT testing

periods to deadlines for applying for financial aid.

Depending on where they live and

attend school, students will have to

take either the SATs or ACTs, and

obtain a high enough score to be

considered for entry. IJGA staff helps

students by sharing their in-depth

knowledge of the testing process and

how to study for their SAT, ACT, or

TOEFL exam.

One of the most important

aspects schools and coaches look

for when recruiting student-

athletes is their past experience

and performance records. IJGA

provides help to our students with

not only writing their academic-

athletic resumes but also finding

and qualifying for the right events

to put on their resumes.

Student-athletes who are

serious about getting a

college scholarship need to

get in contact with coaches.

Finding and contacting the

right coaches isn’t always

easy, which is why IJGA

provides students with

coaches’ contact info and

helps them make first contact.
