<p>A big question: are you a good enough athlete to be recruited at the Division 1, 2 or 3 level? If the coach wants you, you get placed in a different category with lower admissions standards. The coach for each sport has a certain number of slots reserved for kids that he can get through admissions (even for D3, non-scholarship schools).</p>

<p>If you’re interested in playing, talk to your coach to get a frank appraisal of what your abilities are.</p>

<p>My general advice to kids who want to play in college is to get yourself into the best academic school that you can get into where you can still play.</p>
