Martin duhour - founder & president

Education is one of the most powerful investments you can make in your future.

For nearly 30 years, I have had the privilege of helping international students access academic and athletic opportunities at U.S. universities. Our goal at IDEA is not simply to help students find a university, but to help them identify the right academic, financial, and personal fit for their future.

Education can open doors, create international connections, and provide opportunities that last far beyond graduation.
