Testimonials
College Prospects of America has received thousands of testimonials over the years. Obviously we can not list them all but here are just a few.
Parents
"Working with College Prospects of America has been a positive and rewarding experience. Our representative, Simon Riley, provided outstanding guidance and support throughout the recruiting process. Our daughter was contacted by over 55 schools and received a total of seven scholarship offers. It was extremely helpful to be able to discuss our questions and concerns with Simon. He was dedicated to helping us find the best match for our daughter both athletically and academically. She recently accepted an excellent scholarship offer from Mars Hill College in North Carolina. We have benefited tremendously from our association with College Prospects of America and highly recommend their services."

"My son, who was among the top basketball players in Ontario, wasn't receiving any legitimate contacts from college coaches despite his size and weight (6'6"/220lbs). After speaking with Mr. Simon Riley, we decided to have College Prospects of America help out. Within weeks we began hearing from schools all across the U.S. and CPOA offered excellent guidance and expert advice. My son (Chris Cobbina) now attends Ohio Valley College, an NCAA Division II school, where he is studying to become a teacher. Thank you for your help, I'd be happy to speak with anyone inquiring about your services."

"Personally, I wasn't too sure what to expect from College Prospects of America but we knew that Dana should have been hearing from coaches and wasn't. So after receiving over one hundred letters from U.S. colleges and universities and being offered multiple scholarship opportunities, including one from the University of Utah and one from the University of Hawaii, we now hold the position that everyone should use CPOA. Dana ended up going to the University of Hawaii in Honolulu on a full scholarship. It never would have happened without the help of Simon Riley and College Prospects of America."

College Prospects of America's profiles are extremely accurate and done in a professional manner.

Student Athletes
"I was a member of Team Ontario and on the Canadian National Field Hockey Team and wasn't getting recruited from U.S. colleges until College Prospects of America came along. Everything changed when they got involved and I had lots of calls from schools all across the U.S. One of the schools that contacted me because of College Prospects of America was the University of Michigan. I eventually ended up receiving an athletic scholarship worth $33,000 per year from them. So cool!"

"My name is Mark Oppong and I attended Meadowvale SS in Mississauga, Ontario. I played football for my high school and also played for the Mississauga Warriors in the Ontario Varsity Football League (OVFL). College Prospects of America sent me a letter indicating that I had the ability to play at universities in the U.S. so we decided to let them help out. I received numerous letters and phone calls from schools across the U.S. and Canada and after visiting a few of the schools who were very serious about recruiting me, decided to sign with Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania (NCAA Division I-AA). Thank you very much for all your hard work and your excellent advice."
