About E4 Consultants: 

“NCAA Requirements often catch even the best student-athletes off guard. Nearly half of the athletes we have studied had incorrect information reported to the NCAA, affecting how their transcripts were evaluated by both the NCAA and college coaches. E4 Consultants will make sure this will not happen to you.”  - David Beckey - Owner E4 Consultants.
