Tuition

Below is the base price of all Rocktop programs. It is important that players understand that school, flights, and food are all additional costs, and will be included appropriately. In order to reserve a spot at Rocktop Academy, one must pay the deposit of the program of their choosing. Although payment schedule is adjustable, pricing is not. For an adjustable payment option please call a staff member under the ‘Contact’ page.

Rocktop Academy outsources all education. Post Grads that require one class post graduation per NCAA regulation will be billed separately for the additional class. High School students that require schooling will be billed and cooperate with the school directly. Although the staff may recommend academic options, Rocktop Academy is a basketball program and not a school.

On the prep school circuit, it is important not to take financial shortcuts to increase profit. Rocktop Academy expenses are as follows; gym/facility cost, housing, tournament/game fees, transportation, marketing, web development, insurance, training, storage, furniture, food, jerseys, employees, and bad debt expense. Each expense is necessary to provide our athletes the best prep experience possible. Providing our athletes with facilities, training, and/or expertise that is not up to Rocktop Academy standards is detrimental to our mission of helping our basketball players play at the college level.

FAQ

Why would a player consider prep school?

Most players who consider prep school are looking for more assistance either academically or athletically. Academic needs include SAT and ACT prep, one course post graduation, or for individual attention to complete high school requirements. Note that many players that attend prep school have already qualified with the NCAA and therefore do not need the academic assistance. These players attend prep school to focus more on the sport they wish to get better at; this usually includes maturing both physically and mentally, and increasing a player’s skill level. The goal of most players who attend prep school is to receive a scholarship or some other form of financial assistance.

Who makes sure the athletes are completing their school work?

Because Rocktop Academy outsources all education, it takes a team of influencers to make sure an athlete’s school work is completed to agreed upon expectations. Time is allocated for school work each day and if expressed, coaches are expected to check if completed. For high school students, tutoring is available both online and at the educational source.

For athletes that chose the high school or college prep program, it is up to the discretion of the student to provide his syllabus and/or access to his high school/college information.

What does this program guarantee?

Although many people believe that coming to prep school will guarantee them a D1 scholarship, this is not the case. We cannot guarantee any scholarships, but we will guarantee that we will try our best to make every player in our program better. We guarantee the exposure, the competition, and playing time.

I choose the college prep program, what classes should I take?

Along with diversifying a student’s educational background, most colleges require students to take general education classes to help students select their college major. Rocktop Academy recommends that college prep students take these classes during their prep year because the credits are generally transferable with a grade of C- or better and the credits keep students on track to graduate with their college degrees.

Below are recommended general education classes to take:

Analytical Reading & Writing (English 1001) – 1 course, 4 credit hours
Quantitive Literacy (Math 1001) – 1 course, 4 credit hours
Arts – 1 course, 3 or 4 credit hours
Human Behavior – 1 course, 3 credit hours
World Society – 1 course, 3 credit hours
Science & Technology – 2 courses, 3 credit hours each
U.S. Society – 1 course, 3 credit hours

I choose the college prep program, can you help me with my financial aid?

Athletes who partake in the college prep program and need help completing their financial aid should contact a coach. Contact information can be found under the ‘Contact’ page.

I am an international student, do you issue visas?

International athletes must apply for a B2 Visitors Visa on https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/tourism-visit/visitor.html. Because Rocktop Academy is not a school, Rocktop Academy does not have I20s. Rocktop Academy does provide an invitation letter.

If a player needs an I20 for the high school program, contact a coach on the ‘Contact’ page. Our program director will provide you with schooling options and prices for an I20.
