The Program
What is YourNextSuccess?
You are Extraordinarily Successful as an Athlete
But the transition from Athlete to "Real Life" is Hard
From conference championships, All-American honors, USA championships, and beyond, you have stepped up and succeeded on the biggest stages within our sport. You have gained a wealth of experience beyond a traditional career path, one that few among us can relate. Now that you are thinking about life after sport, you may have questions about finding something you are just as passionate about, if you can make a good income, and whether employers will value your experience.
​
We offer a suite of services tailored to your experiences as an athlete, whether you are at the beginning of your athletics career, starting your preparation for what's next, or ready to make the jump. Our focus is on the strengths of your experience on the track in order to hone in on YourNextSuccess off the track.
