<p>How do student athletics handle their sport and the demands of college at the same time?</p>
<p>There were a lot of athletes I knew of that just majored in communications.</p>
<p>Excellent time management skills.</p>
<p>Time management, tutors, discipline.</p>
<p>At my school, student athletes are the first ones to schedule their classes. So, in essence, they always can get the good classes first and they’re able to create a schedule around their athletic schedule. They also have mandatory study halls and can get a tutor for any class that they need help in.</p>
<p>I know of some athletes who have easy majors, others who have hard. One of our star baseball players is an International Business Major which is one of the most difficult and competitive majors at USC.</p>
<p>But you almost have to admire student athletes. They have so many demands put on them by their particular sport and then on top of that they have their schoolwork to keep up with. That’s a lot of work.</p>
<p>Major in communications.</p>
<p>I played a sport my first year and in some ways it was easier. You don’t have the time to procrastinate. Athletes also have access to review guides and sometimes their own tutoring centers. I had my coach last year that sat down one on one to help the star player of the team study for the exam to be eligible to play.</p>
<p>I was an athlete for my D1 school (I quit for various reasons) and we got priority registration so we would get the classes we needed when we wanted them. We had mandatory “study hours” where we could go to private locations to get things done. Athletes all had access to private tutors and special athlete academic advisers. All of these things are pretty typical for most schools and it really helped with grades.</p>
<p>easy majors, help from peers, and time management.</p>
<p>Basically get free tutoring and such.</p>
