Great video . Very helpful and saving kids from waisting money on agencies. Support all the way from africa

[@ElliotSlade]

Thank you mate! Hope this helps. Don't let those agencies take advantage !!

That’s the best and most helpful video so far I’ve ever watched

Thank you!

im here for you!

This is a great video that changed my mind. I’m an junior Korean-American basketball player currently at Korea and I emailed ASU staffs a day ago. Haven’t got a response yet but I have high hopes I’ll get one soon.. I had D2 offers in NCSA but ASU is my primary goal.

[@kxxxkxk]

Update?

[@deepIyingplaymaker]

@@kxxxkxk I wasn't able to hook myself an entry to ASU but I've gotten several D1 red-shirt offers throughout my junior year. Now I'm in my senior year finalizing decisions.

Thanks so much for looking out for everyone discovered you on Twitter

[@daiwilliams6232]

Great advice Elliott! Been waiting for you to pop this on! Well done on using your experiences to help everyone looking at collegiate athletics. This would obviously translate to a lot of other sports too

[@ElliotSlade]

Much appreciated! Sorry it took so long! This absolutely would relate to anyone looking to get a scholarship in ANY sport. Get onto the coaches!

[@daiwilliams6232]

@@ElliotSlade great work buddy!!

[@joshuaadebayo319]

Thanks a lot Elliot. This has been immensely useful. I am going to apply to some NCAA d3 schools for basketball using this knowledge.

[@ElliotSlade]

Awesome that's great to know. Remember that d3 doesn't offer scholarships, d2 and d1 can offer FULL rides!

[@bethinspirationaltv2476]

Just what i needed thank you

[@gabrielleshacklady360]

Hi, I love the video!! I am a 16 year old girl golfer- should I start contact with the university’s now? And I don’t have an agency so this video is great!!

[@ElliotSlade]

Hey there. Thank you so much. I would get in touch now to show you're interested for sure. Then you can see what the coaches will say and what they're looking for and keep an eye on you. Sometimes they have standards so it's good to talk directly to the coach. When reaching out, make sure to 'big yourself up' and show what you've done as ultimately that's what they are looking for!

[@gabrielleshacklady360]

Elliot Slade I will do- thank you for the help!

[@Top9Oche]

Hey Elliot, love the video. I’m 20 years old from Nigeria. Can I use this opportunity as well? Really want to achieve this dream of mine

[@ElliotSlade]

Adams Oche yes you can, if you do a sport then you can reach out to d1 and D2 schools no problem!

[@Top9Oche]

Elliot Slade Thank you so much. I reached out to you by email. Hopefully we can talk more on this

[@Krrish-yt]

At what age should I apply for ncaa because I’m only 15 and want to play d1 basketball

[@juliapiekarski2141]

Hey, thanks for the advice. My dad doesn't wanna go with an agency since it's so expensive. Now I know that I've got another option. I'm a soccer player. Would you already send the highlight video and soccer CV in the first email?

[@bantatron4544]

Hey. I live in Switzerland and all my school documents are in German and the grading system is different (numbers not letters). Is that a problem? I’m guessing I just need to get the documents translated, right? Is it also a problem applying as an 19 year old? Great vid btw rly helpful.

[@ElliotSlade]

Hey, it's not a problem at all. From what I remember, I had to send my results to some company in the USA that translated my UK grades into a US equivalent - So yeah, you'd just need them translated. It's not a problem applying as a 19 year old, I was 20 when I made a submission - You can apply at pretty much any age before 22!

[@sumaiyaibrahim6458]

Thank you for this it has been helpful and also do I need to take SATS as I’m in a British curriculum school doing the IGCSEs? And when do you recommend me to start reaching out to coach’s I’m in the 11th grade rn

[@ElliotSlade]

I would start reaching out a YEAR in advance!

[@trinidadbarrios7134]

Hey! What about the recruiting questionnaires? Should I do them or go right away with the email? Considering I'm still in high school. Thank you so much for the video!!

[@ElliotSlade]

I'd go right for the email!

[@diegojosue426]

thanks for your vid man! Just wondering if you entered Villanova your Freshman year or your Sophomore year and also if you need both ACT and SAT to get into the college.Cheers Man!

[@ElliotSlade]

Hey, I came in as a second semester Freshman. I transferred from a UK college but the application is exactly the same. I did the ACT ONLY. You only need to do one of those! The SAT is most popular however!

[@diegojosue426]

Thanks Man! One thing I also noticed is you mentioning GCSE and A Level. Is that a UK thing because I’ve actually never heard of those terms

[@ElliotSlade]

@@diegojosue426 Yeah, those are our exams\ equivalent to the SAT/ACT's and are what we need to do to get into university in the UK.

[@CarlosHenrique-wc5ff]

Hellooo, pleasure my name is Carlos !! I'm Brazilian, I'm 18 years old and I'm a beginner in Men's Volleyball (I've never participated in championships), and I'm VERY interested and a giant LOVE for Volleyball, but I'm in my senior year at the moment, I feel I'm LATE compared to players who have played since childhood :(. My dream is to play Volleyball in the USA, and for that I have to go through several processes and such. What are the chances and tips you would give an International Athlete to get a Sports Scholarship (I don't have a very good financial condition ...) and the only thing you have is PURE PASSION and a lot of WILL to be a player ??

[@saddepp3560]

Update?

[@pakhackergamingzone4372]

how I apply to university on sports? I am from Pakistan.

[@ElliotSlade]

Go to the college websites and look at 'International Student forms' If you're looking at the sports route then email the coach!

[@pakhackergamingzone4372]

how I find coach for my self

[@ElliotSlade]

@@pakhackergamingzone4372 Whatever sport you do, see if it's one that offers a sports scholarship then go to their website and find the head coach and email them.

[@pakhackergamingzone4372]

OK thanks

[@Carol-y8h]

Been there done that…💸💸

[@jakubdabrowski2711]

Is this the same with football or other sports?

[@ElliotSlade]

Yep! Same for pretty much any sport. Just send results, videos and anything you think would help show how good you are!

[@olahragamalaysia]

So you were a 1st year student in your country, when you go there, did they put you back to 1st year student from beginning, or they proceed to put you on 2nd year?

[@ElliotSlade]

I went to first year with some transfer credits so I didn't have to take as many classes.

[@EdyMatyy]

Love you

[@joshm1512]

Hi di you need to get your gcse and a level grades translated

[@anandhurk3208]

What is the age limit for applying in each division for soccer?

[@ElliotSlade]

D1 runs on a 4 year clock so as soon as you finish high school I think it runs. If not, you only have until 21/22. D2 there is no age limit I don't think!

[@franklindesanta924]

What year did you take your sat/act

[@ElliotSlade]

I took them 6 months before going to the USA! So, 2011 for me I think.

[@mariamselim5949]

How many alevels did you take? I only have one Alevel and 8 gcses

[@ElliotSlade]

I did 3, but take the ACT or SAT - That's what they care about.

[@dannypazani]

elliot what about the visa stuff?

[@ElliotSlade]

The VISA comes with being accepted. Once you've been accepted you'll get all the documents to go to the US embassy in your country and they'll approve your new student Visa.

[@ElliotSlade]

Depending on your age you might be able to go to a D2 school - with 1.50 you will get a FULL scholarship.

[@narendraroshan7720]

Well here is just the video for you, I break it down step by step! This is for athletes though.

[@BeatrizOliveira-gg7tx]

What about health insurance?

[@ElliotSlade]

Health Insurance is often part of the scholarship if you're on full ride. Otherwise it is about 500 dollars a year.

[@BeatrizOliveira-gg7tx]

@@ElliotSlade thanks so much for responding

@@BeatrizOliveira-gg7tx No problem at all. Any other questions, I'm always here!

Are A- level’s essential or are b tech courses ok ?

They care more about the SAT or ACT. BTEC is fine.

[@franklindesanta924]

When did you email the school?

Around January of the same year. The whole process took about a year from the first email :)
