In return, the student-athlete will represent the university in Ice Hockey and maintain a good level of academic performance.

An Ice Hockey scholarship to the USA is a unique opportunity to pursue an academic and playing career within some of the best academic and sporting environments in the World.

The NCAA Division I sponsors 59 Ice Hockey programs for men and 34 for women. Division II offers 7 for men and 34 for women. The Ice Hockey recruiting process takes longer than any other college sport because the longer a coach can watch you, the better idea he will have of your potential. To increase your chances of being recruited, it is important to have club team experience.
