American universities give kids tons of scholarship money not because they study hard or any academic reason, but that they play sports; if you want your kids to learn anything, shouldn't you send your kids here to the UK? We have sports but not tied to college scholarships. I know, you guys want to find dumb kids from the ghettos, give them a football and a diploma so you can sell tickets and t-shirts and pat each other on the back. And all is justified in your country as bringing in money for the school. If American parents really want to give their kids a good education you really need to send them to England.

i think your only seeing part of the story here. im not gonna defend all american schools, cuz they arent all good. but what you arent seeing is that a majority of the athletic scholarships are also tied to academics. they find someone they want based on a sport and then they check into their academics and if they meet a certain level they help them out with the money. most of the time its not only their skill. wouldnt you think parents would rather their kid get their schooling payed for then have to pay WAY extra to send them to another country? i still wouldnt mind going to Englad though! haha

Are you kidding? There is no need to ship kids of to other countries for an education.
