Sports Scholarships An Insiders Guide

(Marvins-Underground-K-12) #1

Where should I send my credentials? Before you can answer


this question, you must ask and answer a few preliminary


planning questions:



  1. Am I willing to attend a college


far from home or am I willing
only to attend local or regional
institutions? And are my par-
ents/guardians willing to let me
attend a college far from home
or would they prefer me to stay
close to home?


  1. Do I want to attend small/large or


public/private schools?



  1. At what level of competition do


I realistically believe I can suc-
cessfully compete? (Division I,
II, III, NAIA I, II, or 2-year junior
college?)


  1. Is my choice of a major course


of study more important than
where I compete?
