PHILOSOPHY

Located on the central west coast of Florida, IMG Academy attracts both local and international students, with just under half of the school’s population coming from abroad and representing over 80 countries.

While offering both a non-boarding and boarding experience, on-campus residence halls allow student-athletes to find a home in close proximity to the Academic Center and world class training facilities for their respective sports. Unparalleled athletic program offerings meet prestigious academics in a dynamic and diverse environment that allows student-athletes to reach their full potential.

The IMG Academy faculty and staff seek to meet the unique needs of the diverse student-athlete population we serve through an eclectic approach to learning. Emanating from a desire to actively challenge and engage, we strive to identify and develop each learner’s inherent ability and capacity for intellectual growth. Passion drives our efforts to provide a quality learning environment for our student-athletes and the encouragement they need to succeed. We are committed to serving the whole learner and are devoted to creating a sense of belonging that transcends learning differences and builds an abiding esprit de corps. As Ascenders, we believe in always reaching, forever striving and never being satisfied with the status quo.

IMG Academy provides an unrivaled environment for individuals to excel as students, athletes, and leaders, and we have placed hundreds of student-athletes at the nation’s best athletic and academic universities every year since 2000.

Cumulative grade point averages earned at IMG Academy and previous schools are reported to colleges. IMG Academy uses a plus/minus scale to compute grade point averages. A student’s GPA is calculated by multiplying the semester grades by the weight of the course. Courses are designated as college preparatory, Honors, and Advanced Placement (AP).

GPA AND ACADEMIC HONORS

The weighted GPA is calculated as follows: +1.0 for AP and +0.5 for Honors. Students earn Honors designation with a semester GPA of 3.5 or higher. Students earn High Honors with a GPA of 4.0 or higher. IMG Academy does not compute class rank.
