Q: Who does Help U work with?

A: Our target client is any athlete who desires to continue playing their chosen sport at the next level.

Q: Won't college coaches find me if I'm good enough to play?

A: Not necessarily! Help U was founded especially to help students put together adequate packages so that coaches are MORE likely to notice them!

Q: Can't one of my coaches get me all the opportunity I need?

A: You cannot rely solely on your coaches- while they certainly want to help you as much as they can, remember that they have an entire team of athletes to look out for. YOU are ultimately responsible for your own future.

Q: Do I really need to worry about the recruiting process before my senior year?

A: Yes! While recruiters typically only scout juniors and seniors, all of the effort that goes into getting their attention is completed long before then. Help U will give you the tools that you need to make the best impression on coaches and recruiters; these are skills that take time to build, and are best started as a Freshman or Sophomore.

Q: Aren't college coaches only interested in my athletic skills?

A: Actually, college coaches are interested in the total package: academics, athletics and integrity. Academically driven students are excellent additions to college teams, and good grades can increase your chances for scholarships!

Q: Should I focus my attention on my best sport?

A: Not necessarily- multi-sport athletes are appealing to college coaches, and playing other sports in the off-season from your true talent will hone your overall athletic skills and keep you in great condition.

Q: Can I get a scholarship even if I don't go to a Division I program?

A:Yes, there are many scholarship opportunities beyond D-I!

Help U aids you in the college selection process to match you to a school where you will be an asset to the team, and enjoy your college experience to the fullest!
