welcome
The Cullowhee Collective is the premier NIL Collective for Western Carolina University Athletics. It was established to assist Catamount student-athletes in cultivating and securing name, image, and likeness (NIL) opportunities. This collective was established by 5 passionate WCU alumni with a goal of all money collected, after required expenses, to be awarded to Catamount student-athletes. The Cullowhee Collective connects the fans, alumni, business with student-athletes looking to further their professional and personal development. NIL opportunities for the athletes include but are not limited to social media endorsements, meet & greets, autographs, appearances, digital content, and more. As a donor to the Cullowhee Collective you are helping WCU student-athletes focus on representing their school at the collegiate level without worrying about additional expenses. Additionally, as a donor you will have the opportunity to gain access to exclusive fan experiences, content, marketing opportunities, and more.
“The Cullowhee Collective is a resource that allows our Catamount student-athletes to realize financial gain for themselves while continuing their service as ambassadors in our community. Your contributions to the collective help meet the expectations of today’s student-athletes and provide them with a first-class experience right here in Cullowhee. I invite all of Catamount Nation to consider supporting The Cullowhee Collective and allow both current and future Catamounts to have a modern Divison-1 experience.”

Athletic Director
“I encourage all of Catamount Nation to support the Cullowhee Collective. Catamount student-athletes work day in and day out to represent our University to the best of their ability. As Catamounts, it is important for us to support our students in the new and exciting age of intercollegiate athletics. Join me in supporting the Catamount Collective!”
