A little context Annual tuition ranges from $86,400 to $96,900 depending on what sport you play, and the school generates $80 million in annual revenue.
That's really, really dumb to pay that. Even if you get a full 4 year scholarship to college, you'd spend more to send your kid here than you'd save by earning a full scholarship. This would only pay off if you wound up going pro in your sport and making it to the top level.

I went to a tennis camp there in the summer of 2007. I really liked it, I went online and looked at the cost and it was like 50-100 thousand a year for the school, tennis, and room/board. You’re only going to this school if you come from a wealthy family or are extremely talented in your sport.
Got to play a summer with a kid who pitched for IMG and when we went down to Florida for a week vaca had the pleasure of to play a couple games with their summer team. Kids were all good
My son did the 2010 Summer Wood Bat League there and loved it. Even managed to win player of the week. Wish we could have afforded to send him there for HS. Highly recommend IMG Academy.
We toured it when my daughter was in Highschool. She was gonna do her Jr year with Leadbetter …however she couldn’t get over leaving home that early in life! Awesome Golf and Tennis 10 years ago…now it’s all the sports. Nice Vid
i went to IMG for 1 year. School and tennis. For tennis it wasn’t the best you are basically paying for the name and it’s very easy to get in anybody can be there.
I mean my schools locker room isn’t that bad. We only had to change in the boys locker room because the girls locker room’s ceiling was falling down. I think our school is pretty close to how good theirs is 😅
@@Tripper1707 if you read my sentence again closely you would see that I meant "not even close" in the way that its not even close to #1 academics in the nation
I go to WPI which is a D3 college in Worcester Mass. This place is 20x nicer than the college I go to I don’t even understand how a high school can be like this.
crazy how there is still schools with bigger stadiums, Katy Highschool in Katy, Texas has a stadium that could almost be confused with a college stadium.. literally 12,000 capacity.
I grew up 1/2 mile from this place waaaay back in the 80's when it was "Nick Bolliteri's Tennis Academy." Lived there in the late 80's to 2008. I'm in mid 40's now. That place as grown so much. We used to try to hook up with the foreign tennis girls when we were young teenagers skating at the "blue" 7-11 down the street. The tennis kids would walk up to the store.
Lol this is literally a college for high school students. You have to pay the exact same University tuition fees to live there. Its on par with the cost of Ivy League schools. You do this to ensure your kid goes pro, or gets on an elite college team that will eventually take him pro. There is a absolutely ZERO other reason to be at this school. Its strictly a sports institution that also happens to hand out GED's at the end of 4 years.
I'm a teacher, so I looked this place up on glassdoor because I was curious about pay. Not great, lol. Ofc this is all self-reported as boarding schools aren't required to post salaries like public schools but here are some numbers... Avg pay: 43k - 63k Home prices in the area vary a lot but I saw a few at 328k which are similar to what I live in now (and I paid 205k for mine, but I live in a low COL area). I'd probably end up living in a condo, but that really wouldn't work for my family:). Single, sure...family no lol. Point being, I wouldn't want to teach there. Looking at the amazing facilities is great, and getting to use them is a perk...but for that pay it sucks. Teachers are already underpaid but this really seems like a slap in the face. Unless I'm missing a major benifit, doesn't seem worth it to me. Also looking at coaches pay, it seems really low. You are churning out the best athletes, super competative programs, etc...and you are only paying 36-58k a year. Now if you can stack that with a teacher salary it isn't bad at all...but I highly doubt the coaches there teach. Maybe I'm wrong. TLDR: Doesn't seem worth it to work here if you are a teacher or coach.
I had no idea what IMG was until I moved to Bradenton in 2017. Then I would see the students, I assume, shuttled to different locations like Walmart, AMI, etc. They always had their t-shirts on and seem to travel in groups a lot. Anyway, all this to say, driving past hundreds of times the building looks beautiful from outside. I could only imagine what it looked like inside. Now I got a glimpse and it looks amazing.
I remember racing a few kids who ran track at IMG in a post season meet after senior year of high school. They only beat me by a few seconds in the mile, and I just remember thinking about how their parents paid 80k/year for them to be not even under 4:20
really cool, thanks. even in this school there's room for more serious maths to meet the future of analytics in sports but more importantly actual education for developing minds. One issue with school tours is that it is really hard to get an idea of how the teachers are at the school, especially if they are all busy teaching and dont want to be disturbed
As someone who has attended this high school i can say it is more like a college, and with that comes parties, drug use, alcohol use and things the school hides under the rug
@@Elena.rivra257 I mean from my friends that go there you don’t have to be elite when you’re a freshman etc. they will develop you. Although if you enter Junior or senior year you have to be college calibre.
@@JackWashburn_ thank you. How is it with the academics there? I heard that there’s barely any academics there and when there is it’s only for an hour or so?
@Romelus69 And? College football players have problems reading at a high-school level so I don't put much stock in their academic pedigree. It's just one more way for American billionaires to get people to pay for their shit.
Anna Kournikova and her parents lived in regular housing across the street back in 1993. My parents lived about 10 houses down from her at the time. She was attending back when it was the [Nick] Bolletteri Academy. Used to see her walking around the lake walking her dog.

Speaking as a professional baseball player. Tell you what…unless your kid is a top prospect as a 7th or 8th grade DO NOT go here. You need a full scholarship or for some families a 75% to even remotely afford tuition costs. It’s absurd and I think over 80 grand. Now if your kid is an elite level prospect at a young age and you can score a full ride then it’s a no brainer. Put it to you this way…by then end of his 4 year term here you will be over 350,000 dollars in debt. That’s why most people only go here for a year to bump up their draft stock and focus on sports to get selected in high school or to go to a great college to avenue towards professional sports. If you don’t aspire to do professional sports don’t go here. If your son to daughter isn’t legit and actually has recognition outside of his state or local area don’t go here. And IF you don’t get a scholarship and you are from a lower to middle income family…DO NOT GO HERE. This school is not a scam but it is very expensive. They do a lot for their students and athletes and I love their concept. But if your little jimmy is batting 300 in his local little league I wouldn’t dare send him to IMG academy. Test your son or daughter in their selected sport to give you a good idea if they are ready for that commitment. They do draft at a very high rate for professional sports but if you go there with a wish and a dream w/ no latent talent or work ethic. It’s throwing money out the window. You can get recognized anywhere lol. Get a good workout plan. A good coach. A good trainer. Manage your diet. And expose yourself to national/international level tournaments. And you STILL won’t spend that kind of ridiculous money for virtually the same training pending on your work ethic. Like I said it’s not a scam but if your not expecting to go top 10 fucking don’t waste your time my friends
This is how all schools should be looking in America with the amount of Tax Dollars that are collected every year. Instead politicians are pocketing it & sending over 50 billion to Ukraine.

They do draft at a very high rate for professional sports but if you go there with a wish and a dream w/ no latent talent or work ethic. It’s throwing money out the window.
You can get recognized anywhere lol. Get a good workout plan. A good coach. A good trainer. Manage your diet. And expose yourself to national/international level tournaments. And you STILL won’t spend that kind of ridiculous money for virtually the same training pending on your work ethic. Like I said it’s not a scam but if your not expecting to go top 10 fucking don’t waste your time my friends
Why so much hate? He’s just trying to make some cool content
This is how all schools should be looking in America with the amount of Tax Dollars that are collected every year. Instead politicians are pocketing it & sending over 50 billion to Ukraine.
