CPN Terms & Conditions
What CPN will provide, what we need from you, and a few important terms so everyone starts on the same page.
Last updated: October 9, 2026
We’re excited about working with your family. These Terms & Conditions are intended to clearly outline what College Pathway Network (“CPN”) will provide, what we need from you, and a few important terms so everyone starts on the same page. Our Privacy Policy separately explains how we handle personal information.
1. What CPN Provides
CPN is a recruiting advisory service designed to help athletes and families navigate the college recruiting process. Depending on the program selected, support may include recruiting strategy, school targeting, recruiting timelines, athlete profiles, advisor meetings, coach communication guidance, recruiting materials, video and highlight strategy, event planning, personal brand guidance, and related recruiting support.
CPN may use its team of advisors, employees, contractors, videographers, technology providers, and other qualified partners to deliver these services.
Additional services such as event filming, highlight creation, social media content, or other media services may be purchased separately.
2. Working Together
Recruiting works best when the athlete, family, and CPN stay engaged. The Athlete and Parent agree to provide accurate information, attend scheduled meetings, complete agreed-upon action items, communicate relevant recruiting developments, and conduct themselves professionally. CPN is not responsible for missed opportunities caused by inaccurate information, missed deadlines, lack of communication, or actions outside CPN's control.
3. Recruiting Outcomes
CPN will work hard to provide thoughtful advice, access, and support, but recruiting decisions ultimately belong to colleges, coaches, admissions offices, and athletic departments. CPN cannot guarantee coach interest, admission, a roster position, playing time, scholarship money, or any other specific recruiting outcome.
CPN is an independent recruiting advisory service. We do not represent any college, university, coach, athletic department, or the NCAA, and we cannot make commitments on their behalf.
4. Fees, Cancellation & Term
The selected program begins when these Terms & Conditions are agreed to and continues until the included services are completed or the applicable program period ends. Payments are due according to the payment terms agreed upon at enrollment.
All CPN programs are sold as package services, not on a per-session or per-service basis. A family may cancel participation at any time by providing written notice to CPN; however, cancellation does not entitle the family to a refund or relieve the family of any remaining payment obligations for the selected program. All payments made or due under the program are non-refundable.
Unused sessions or services have no cash value and may not be transferred to another athlete or family without CPN's written approval.
CPN may end the relationship for nonpayment, inappropriate conduct, repeated failure to participate, a material violation of these Terms & Conditions or CPN safety policies, or circumstances that make continued service impractical.
5. Athlete Safety, Privacy & Media
CPN is committed to a professional and appropriate environment for student-athletes. Families agree to follow CPN's applicable Code of Conduct, Minor Athlete Safety, communication, sexual-abuse-prevention, and event/travel safety policies.
Parent authorizes CPN to communicate with the Athlete by reasonable methods such as email, phone, text, video conference, and CPN technology platforms in accordance with CPN's minor-athlete communication policies.
To provide recruiting services, Parent authorizes CPN to use and share appropriate athletic, academic, contact, recruiting, photo, and video information with coaches, colleges, recruiting personnel, technology providers, and service providers involved in the recruiting process. Broader promotional or commercial use of the Athlete's image or likeness may require separate authorization.
6. A Few Important Terms
CPN may recommend or use independent third-party providers. CPN is not responsible for decisions or actions of colleges, coaches, admissions offices, athletic departments, tournament operators, recruiting platforms, or independent third parties.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, CPN will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages. CPN's total liability arising from these Terms & Conditions will not exceed the amount actually paid to CPN. Nothing here limits rights or liabilities that cannot legally be limited.
These Terms & Conditions are governed by Illinois law and, together with the selected program, payment terms, and applicable CPN policies, reflects the understanding between CPN and the family. Changes should be agreed to in writing. Electronic signatures are acceptable.
7. Family Acknowledgment
By checking the box at checkout, you confirm that you have reviewed and agree to these Terms & Conditions, understand the CPN program you are purchasing, and acknowledge that CPN provides recruiting guidance and support but does not guarantee any specific recruiting, admissions, roster, scholarship, or other outcome.
