ELEVATE’s Next Level Recruiting Program—3 Levels of Engagement
FULL SERVICE PROGRAM
Athletes spend 12-18+ months working with ELEVATE to reach the goal of swimming at the next level on a collegiate team. Athletes are coached through a 3-phase framework that follows a specific and detailed plan based on recruiting best practices. ELEVATE customizes its steps as appropriate for each athlete’s unique circumstances, while offering ongoing feedback and coaching throughout the recruiting and application process.
Key elements of the program include:
- Creating college list based on academic and athletic qualifications
- Supporting research of colleges for both academic and athletic priorities
- Maximizing athletic profile and self marketing tools
- Generating timeline and personalized script for coach emails
- Preparing for and practicing coach calls
- Navigating the ongoing communication process with coaches
- Selecting and preparing for campus visits
- Prioritizing college criteria for final selection
- Ensuring academic and NCAA requirements are complete
- Supporting the Common App final submission
Due to the individualized nature of the Full Service Program, space in each recruiting class is limited.
MODIFIED PROGRAM
Athletes who start the recruiting process during the 2nd half of junior year will be best served with the Modified Program which proceeds through the recruiting framework in a condensed amount of time with adjusted milestones. The Program typically runs 6-9 months.
SINGLE CONSULTATIVE SESSION
Athletes spend 50 minutes with ELEVATE at any point in the recruiting process for specific guidance. This single session includes a pre-meeting questionnaire and a post meeting summary via email, highlighting key next steps and advice.
*Please note: ELEVATE is not a recruiting service; it is a coaching and education service.
