BRISTOL, R.I. (May 31st, 2024) – US Sailing, the national governing body of the sport of sailing, is excited to announce a partnership with InGenius Prep, the world’s premier college admissions consulting firm. This is US Sailing’s 14th new partner since 2023.
InGenius Prep was founded on the simple observation that the most direct source of admissions knowledge comes from the people who worked inside the admissions office: Former Admissions Officers. Their team of over 150 Former Admissions Officers from every top school in the United States provides actionable insights that bolster students’ applications and increases their chances of admission by up to 10x.
“Youth sailing teaches important life skills like confidence, decision making, and teamwork that are so valuable for young people in their education and future careers,” said John Pearce, US Sailing’s Youth Racing Manager. “We are happy to partner with InGenius Prep to provide support for our young sailors and their families as they consider their options for higher education, and we know that all of our sailors will go far in life, and in sailing.”
We firmly believe that our partnership with InGenius Prep will give our sailors the competitive edge they need to stand out in the world of elite college admissions, and ultimately, secure their futures.
“Having helped hundreds of athletes gain admission to the most selective universities, we are absolutely thrilled to announce this partnership with US Sailing, and to assist their families and students with navigating the complex college admissions process,” said Joel Butterly, CEO of InGenius Prep. “We look forward to helping the broader sailing community achieve their educational dreams and gain admission to their dream schools.”
InGenius Prep will be an event sponsor for select Junior Olympic Festivals in 2024. At each festival, their team will host optional presentations for sailors’ parents to learn about the complex college admissions landscape and meet Former Admissions Officers. Additionally, US Sailing will assist in promoting InGenius Prep webinars in 2024, with the first webinar occurring on June 12, 2024 at 8pm ET.
