NCSA College Recruiting Opiniões 

We had a very poor experience with NCSA.

My son is a strong student-athlete with a clearly defined academic goal, yet the schools NCSA matched him with did not even offer his intended degree program. Despite reaching out to multiple colleges through the platform, no schools with his actual degree program ever responded.

The service felt generic and automated rather than personalized, which defeats the entire purpose of paying for recruiting assistance. When we attempted to cancel after realizing the matches were academically incompatible and ineffective, we were not allowed to cancel, which added to the frustration.

For the cost, we expected meaningful academic alignment, real outreach support, and basic flexibility when the service clearly wasn’t delivering. Unfortunately, we received none of that.

I would not recommend this service to families who care about academic fit as much as athletics.

Not worth the money, they promise they will assist you with all aspects of the program if you pay for the highest membership… LIES they don’t assist with nothing they call you a couple times send you some workshops that you can find free on YouTube! Honestly do not recommend wish no stars were available to rate this NCSA!

It is so so important for the recruiter coach and the student athlete to form a connection. Without a connection, the sessions can feel like the recruiter is not interested in the student as a person and just there to go through a checklist of rapid-fire questions about profiles and to-do lists. Perhaps a better approach would be to ask some personal questions; do they have pets, something the student likes, or maybe a favorite food or drink at Starbucks. Maybe share a short story of the recruiters' common interest. It is important to find the one or two things the recruiter has in common with the student other than just basketball. This will open up better conversation over time and build trust when the recruiter is giving advice. Especially when talking to female athletes.

I wouldn’t have even known where to start with my recruiting process without NCSA. They have been such a big help and everything is super organized and easy to find! I have loved everything about NCSA.

Helpful and professional advice from knowledgeable experts who care about your swimmer! Their platform is really extensive and easy, with tons of information, templates and contact details. In addition they offer lots of webinars that are invaluable to the whole process. Your contact person, who you meet with on a regular basis, will help alleviate the stress that recruiting entails, giving great advice, helping your swimmer set up their profile, and guiding you towards your goals. Overall worth every dollar!

Customer service and accessibility very good, with rapid and professional responses to queries. The whole process (so far) has allowed us to navigate through an entirely new venture for our son, and the ability to constantly refine and research how we approach college applications is very impressive.

Great experience. So easy to talk to. Great advice. Love these guys

Excellent program for athletes, the webinars are very informative for college prep and skill advancement

NCSA College Recruiting
I began my membership with NCSA in 2021 for my oldest daughter. At the time, I did not realize how difficult it would be to work with this company or how challenging it would be to end the membership.
My daughter has been in college for approximately 2.5 years and no longer needs or uses NCSA services. I attempted to cancel my membership in 2023 and have made multiple attempts since then to end the service. Despite these repeated requests, I have been told that I cannot cancel.
I recently discovered that NCSA has continued charging me a $35 monthly fee. When I contacted them again to cancel, I was once more informed that cancellation is not allowed. I do not use these services, do not want these services, and have made repeated good-faith efforts to cancel my membership.
This experience has been extremely frustrating and stressful. I am simply asking for my membership to be canceled and for the charges to stop. I hope NCSA will address this issue and improve their customer service and cancellation process.

NCSA has been an extremely valuable tool for our family during this time as we are navigating admissions and financial planning for college. Having the ability to communicate directly with college recruiting personnel has been seamless and easy to navigate. Also our personal advisor, Megan, has been a pleasure to work with and has given us solid and constructive information as our daughter prepares for her university education. NCSA is well worth it!!

This program has been very helpful in making decisions about our daughters future and making sure she ends up in the right school. Very useful

Lots of good information and positive feedback about opportunities.

Coach Grignon has helped me a lot, and I'm glad to have him as my recruiter

Awesome service- really help pinpoint what programs need to be seeing in videos and guiding us through this process!

Allowed Quinn to lead the conversation and from that point has the resources and connections to help Quinn make the next steps.

Appreciate all the help and guidance!

Well organized website. Advisor is helpful and communicates well, overall a great experience using the website.

Coach Amanda responds quickly to us and has a plethora of knowledge to help guide us with making the right decisions and getting us prepared for the next step.

Our experience with NCSA College Recruiting has been very positive. The platform helped us better understand the college recruiting process and what steps truly matter for student-athletes. Having everything laid out—from recruiting timelines to coach communication tools—made the process far less overwhelming.
The educational resources were especially helpful, and the guidance provided realistic expectations instead of false promises. It gave us clarity on where our athlete stood and how to move forward strategically. The system keeps you organized and focused, which is invaluable during such a stressful and competitive process.
If you’re willing to put in the work and use the tools provided, NCSA can be a very helpful resource for navigating college recruiting.

Coach Goodpaster is very friendly and knowledgeable. Relates well to the High School athlete
