  College Recruiting Advice: Academic Advice
Many people go to college without knowing what they want to study. This is o.k.! Make a list of courses or areas of study that might interest you, and make sure the institutions to which you are planning to apply offer them. For instance, if you know you want to study architecture- make sure your prospective schools have an adequate program. Feel free to ask the coach what he/she knows about that program. You can also visit the schools website and search for particular departments. Be sure to research each school's academic offerings carefully. It's hard to believe- but you will be spending more time in the classroom than on the field.

Take a look at your university's academic requirements. Some schools have minimal requirements while others have 'core' curriculums. If you have taken SAT II's and AP's, research what each school's requirements are for 'placing out' of certain courses. Maybe you'll be able to graduate early from college!

Many students end up studying and traveling abroad. Is this an option that intrigues you? If so, find out the percentage of students at each school that end up studying abroad. Where do most go? What countries does the school have programs in? And, how would this affect your athletic career?

What kind of scheduling does each school use? Some schools use trimesters, some semesters, and others quarters. What appeals to you?

Find out the average SAT and GPA at the university and on the respective team. See what type of majors members on the team are pursuing.

Ask the coach what academic areas you need to improve to be accepted and make an effort to improve those respective areas.
