<p>I have verbally committed to play a sport at W&M for fall 2011. How are athletic scholarships awarded? I don't believe I can qualify for financial aid, but are there any other scholarship opportunities through the college?</p>
<p>this is probably an issue to discuss with the coach of your sport… each sport has a certain number of scholarships that can be in use at any given time.</p>
<p>soccerguy is right. It’s up to the coach to disseminate whatever scholarship money he/she has to incoming students. Some sports offer full and partial scholarships, some offer only partial, and I believe there are a few sports that may not have any scholarships. Contact your coach and find out what if any scholarship money the team has and whether or not you’re being considered for any of that money.</p>
<p>Thanks to both of you. Because it’s only a verbal so far, i’m a little nervous, but I will ask.</p>
