How it works
PARTNER
Onboard student-athlete population.
COMPLIANCE GUIDANCE
Integrate local and national compliance training into each stakeholder interaction.
UPSKILLING
Supporting student-athletes in creating stellar training experiences for youths while developing business acumen for the long-term.
Universities
Cultivate and retain your Student-Athlete population without an enormous budget. We come alongside the student-athlete development department to ensure that student-athletes are prepared for life after the sport through essential soft skills building, mentorship guidance, and evaluations.
Parents
We cultivate an atmosphere of fun and inspiring learning to develop your young athletes by intentionally connecting them to their hometown sports heroes. Knowing that 80% of the current student-athletes attribute much of their development to a sports mentor, we make that opportunity relevant and exciting for youth.
Student-athletes
Flexible Income earning while preparing for the next level. A Partner that keeps your eligibility and development as the primary focus. We’re former student-athletes and administrators who understand your current needs as much as your future considerations.
Collectives & Businesses
Be an advocate for all student-athletes
Unfortunately, the majority of NIL deals lean towards 2 sports. Partnering with us allows your team to intentionally serve student-athletes across a much wider range of sports while making a significant impact on your local community. If you’re questioning the ROI of social media posts and appearances we’re here to show you another pathway.
Our Commitment to Student-Athletes
Student-Athlete.co is extremely personal for our founder, Jermaine Malcolm. During the fall semester of 2010, he grappled with this question: how can I create a clear path for other young people to earn a college education?
For Jermaine, a vehicle to that education and a new world was sports. He was sought out by his high school director and coaches as a sophomore and guided into a top-performing athlete with no prior experience. For the impact it has had on his life, Jermaine has been committed to and cultivated a deep understanding of how to pair desired learners with the right resources and mentorship to get them to the next level whether it be sports or business ownership.

Student-Athlete Q&As
Yes, even before NIL policies were updated all NCAA student-athletes had the ability to provide training sessions through NCAA Bylaw 12.4, but most student-athletes were unaware. We ensure student-athletes remain eligible while finding consistent training opportunities for them.
We’re a team made up of former student-athletes. We wished for relevant and accessible ways to earn money while in college to support our families and aspirations. We also want to provide student-athletes with more opportunities to build their professional presence and competencies while in college because we know how difficult a typical work or internship schedule can be for athletics programming.
Student-athletes are paid a set rate for each training session conducted, we retain a percentage to facilitate the interaction and future sessions.
We’ll work with you to schedule sessions for the days and times that work best for you.
