At Soccer Student Pathway (SSP), we help aspiring players turn potential into opportunity. From securing scholarships to graduation, we provide tailored support to guide you through the U.S. college recruitment process — clearly, confidently, and affordably.
We’ve lived this journey ourselves — from JUCO champions to D1 locker rooms to the MLS Draft. We built SSP to offer the kind of honest, practical guidance we wish we had. This isn’t just a service — it’s a mission. We’re not like the others.
At Soccer Student Pathway, we believe that potential deserves opportunity — and that success in college soccer isn’t just about talent, but about having the right guidance at the right time.
We’ve lived this journey ourselves, across every level of the college game, and we know how overwhelming, confusing, and expensive the process can be. That’s why we built SSP to be different.
Every player’s journey is different — so our support is too. Whether you need one-off advice or full, start-to-finish guidance, we’ve built a flexible model to meet you where you are. Book consultancy calls as you go, or step into The Pathway Experience for complete, long-term support. No pressure. No one-size-fits-all. Just expert guidance, your way.
