Overprized and mass produced, but otherwise great opportunities. Tuition nowadays is $83,000 which In my opinion should include a personal butler and daily massages alongside a three-course menu cooked by a Michelin star chef. Unfortunately, none of that is the case. Upside: Experienced and knowledgeable coaches!

IMG academy was a great experience in terms of social life and academics, however the academics were not as tough as one might expect from a college preparatory school. Socially this has been an excellent experience meeting people from different cultures. Meeting these people from different cultures has changed my entire life and I now feel like a citizen of the world rather then just The United States. The sports at IMG are second to none from facilities to coaching it is basically a college level. The academics are the only problem I have had with IMG. The classes are decently challenging however I feel like it is not as rigorous as it could be.
Not enough athletic training development (position specific- technique/form),not enough healthy food choices, improved food options at games. Extended hours for meals. More all inclusive. For the expensive price of tuition, it's disappointing there are separate charges for snacks, coffee, etc. Would like to see more flexibility with the weight training schedule so players can make sure they can adhere to a weight routine when the game schedule results in missed training sessions. Would like to see more personal development, goal setting and results coaching to inspire an attitude of excellence. Inspirational speakers/programs. Not enough individual counseling. Need more opportunities for students to voice opinions and then show that their input is valuable and act on it. Make students feel important and special. My son keeps telling me they don't care about him there. It's all about making money
