Hello, umm… I know, this question sounds really stupid, but I really don’t know how it works.
Let’s say… If one’s really good at a sports and won many medals and stuff, do colleges call him or her?
I really don’t have a clue on the process of one being recruited…
Plz…can someone explain it to me?
<p>If you are truly a top athlete (in the newspaper articles ALL the time, all county, all state), they will find you.</p>
<p>If you are just a good athlete, your coaches will--if you ask them--contact schools on your behalf.</p>
<p>You can also contact the athletic director of a school you are interested in.</p>
<p>Talk with your coaches, they will know what to do.</p>
<p>There are a lot of old threads on this. There are also books, articles etc. You should contact coaches during the spring of junior year or summer after junior year. If you play a team sport, you might want to have a video of whole games and/or highlights. If your sport relies on times, there are sample letters available to send to coaches with your times and academic credentials. Your coach should help you, too. Talk to your coach about what colleges would be appropriate for you with your skill level, and then figure out which ones appeal to you academically. Do NOT choose a college that you would not like it you broke your leg and could no longer do your sport. Depending on your ability level, you can really use your sport to help your chances with admissions. Check the old threads.</p>
