The Student-Athlete Foundation has just been established and will only be considering financial aid requests when sufficient funds have been contributed.

Imagine…

A place that nurtures dedicated youth from over 80 countries to help them achieve their true potential; a place where 98 percent of these young students graduate and attend college; a place where many have become prominent athletes and have raised the bar in their respective sport.

This place exists at IMG Academies and IMG Pendleton School, located on the 400-acre campus in Bradenton, Fla. We are devoted to helping student-athletes attain academic and athletic excellence in our one-of-a-kind educational and athletic training environment.

At IMG Academies, we are devoted to helping kids become The Total Student-Athlete.

Who is The Total Student-Athlete?

Someone who maximizes his or her full potential across all dimensions of performance. Someone who refuses to sacrifice academics for athletics — or vice versa.  Someone with the dedication to always perform their best in sport, the classroom and the community.  Someone who is unafraid to dream of huge accomplishments and dedicated to make them come true.

In the last two years, 98 percent of our student-athletes have gone to college, collectively earning more than $2 million in college scholarships for their freshmen year alone. The other two percent turned pro in their respective sport. By preparing our student-athletes to take on all of life’s challenges, IMG Academies affects more than the next four years — it directly impacts the next 40.
