NCSA, Next College Student Athlete Reviews

Easy to use. Always following up with communication emails or texts.

It's really good, but it's kitted up to someone living in the U.S and there are a few things that non residents can't do.

Great way to showcase me to coaches and to learn about colleges I had not heard about. Good support but not pushy

Great online tutorials, college information. Matches are good.

They do really well at what they are offering

Its okay. It only works if u have money.

I love the app
Gave me joy about seeing what schools I had interest from and teaching me how to talk to coaches, but one thing that I think should change is the interactions with these coaches I feel like if there is a coach that we are given through this process of being recruited they should be able to reach out to the coaches and tell them; "hey I have this kid that is interested in your program, his 6ft he plays guard he is a knockdown shooter from midrange and I think he could be the leader of your team in the next 4 years." just to help cause there have been a few coaches that I really wanted to talk to about possibilities in transferring and playing for them now and I'm a freshman in college but they haven't responded or even opened my emails to even get to know me and see if we could work out a visit and other stuff. so I feel like if we are paying for this monthly payment to be a prestige member and we only see we are getting interest I feel like the "recruiting coaches" should help by reaching out to colleges along with us and have weekly text, and or calls talking about camps, possible coaches that would like to contact kind of have a "Manager/ representative - Athlete relationship"

NCSA has helped me organize my college search, making it easier to navigate my college recruiting journey. They give me tips on how to best handle different situations, from contacting and communicating with coaches to identifying strengths and weaknesses of the schools I'm talking to.

However, they claim to "advertise you to coaches", but really I think it just means they show off your profile to NAIA and DIII schools that partner with NCSA. I'm not the greatest athlete alive, but I'm no slouch, so it was really discouraging to see interest "only" from these small schools that I never knew existed. It wasn't until I reached out to DI schools that I really wanted to attend and compete for that I realized this wasn't the case. It also made me believe that DI schools don't rely on NCSA as much as DIII and NAIA.

NCSA is a great tool for athletes that don't have the stats or ability to attract big athletic programs, but for athletes that have a good shot at competing on the higher levels of college sports, it's not as valuable of a resource. Although I will say, NCSA has helped me streamline the recruiting process 10x more than I would've been able to on my own.

Ncsa is great for seeing universities you don’t really know about. % match is not always accurate

NCSA has given me access to an unlimited amount of colleges & coaches. I have also been given a platform to share information & videos about myself.
