"We do all we can to place each student at their #1 choice of school. Other college placement services and academies have an 'any placement will do' attitude. Our primary objective at the Weil College Placement Program is to exceed the player's expectation for their placement in every level whether it is academic, athletic or scholarship. And we have consistently proven that in the past few years with every single player," said College Placement Director Mohamed El Bouzkouri. | |
