While College GAMEplan subscribers are
generally talented student athletes, there is more to choosing a college
than just sports and which school will offer you the most scholarship
money to attend. College life will include a commitment and
discipline toward academics as well as exposure to a variety of different
social activities. In addition, consideration must also be given to
topics that include, but are not limited to:
-
School size
-
Location - urban, suburban, rural, etc
-
Cost
-
Admission Requirements
-
Reputation
-
Class Size
-
Housing Options including Greek Life
-
Extra Curricular Activities
-
Religious Affiliation
-
Playing Opportunities
-
Redshirt Policies
-
Junior College Transfer Policies
-
Walkon Policies
-
Current Rosters
and much, much more.
Since distinguishing between offers from lots
of colleges can be daunting task, College GAMEplan strongly encourages you
to perform due diligence before making any acceptance commitments.
Discuss playing opportunities with the coach; talk about admission
requirements with the Admissions Representatives; take a virtual tour;
visit the campus; interview other students and potential teammates; and
evaluate each school's overall strengths and weaknesses using College
GAMEplan's unique evaluation and comparison tool. Simply copy the
attached spreadsheet into a spreadsheet program on your computer, then
choose the consideration categories that are most important to you and
follow the instructions to assign a grade to each consideration category.
Upon completion, you'll have a numerical score that evenly compares each
college against each to determine the school that best meets your
criteria.
