Why athletes choose IGS

Asynchronous by design

Morning practice, afternoon study — or the reverse. Courses are self-paced, so training blocks, travel, and tournaments never collide with class time.

NCAA-approved courses

IGS holds NCAA School Code 852671. Credits earned here are recognized by NCAA member institutions when athletes apply and pursue athletic scholarships.

A real diploma, not a shortcut

Athletes graduate with the same accredited U.S. high-school diploma as every IGS student — Cognia-accredited, recognized by the State of Florida.

Counseling for the recruiting road

Our college counselors help athletes plan core courses, GPA, and timelines with recruiting in mind — from first contact to signing day.

Any time zone, any tour stop

Competing abroad? Coursework travels with you. Students study from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

On-campus option in Florida

Train and study in one place: our Florida campus supports in-person study, family-style housing, and F-1 visas for international athletes.

Golf at IGS

Where junior golf and the classroom share a campus

Our Florida campus in Howey-in-the-Hills was established alongside a leading junior golf academy — so competitive golfers can build their swing and their transcript on one schedule, minutes apart.

Morning range sessions, afternoon coursework — one coordinated day.
Tournament travel without missed classes — courses pause and resume with you.
I-20 / F-1 support for international golfers who want the full U.S. experience.
NCAA-approved academics that keep college golf ambitions alive.

The road to college sports

Your D1–D3 pathway, step by step

1

Enroll in NCAA-approved coursework

Full-time diploma or part-time courses — your counselor maps core courses (English, math, science, social studies) to NCAA requirements from day one.

2

Protect your core GPA

Self-paced study around your training keeps grades strong — and grades are what college coaches and the NCAA look at first.

3

Register with the NCAA Eligibility Center

Typically in Grade 9–10. IGS transcripts flow to the Eligibility Center under School Code 852671; our team helps you keep the file complete.

4

Get recruited — with your academics ready

When a Division I, II, or III program calls, your transcript, GPA, and diploma are already in order — including athletic-scholarship consideration.

For sports academies

Run a sports academy? Add accredited U.S. academics.

IGS partners with sports academies to deliver the academic half of an athlete's day — fully online, or in your classrooms with our curriculum and oversight. Your athletes train with you and graduate with an accredited U.S. diploma and NCAA-recognized transcripts.

Online academics

Athletes study IGS courses around your training calendar — anywhere in the world.

In-classroom delivery

Structured study blocks at your facility, backed by IGS teachers, transcripts, and support.
