The Student Athlete Survival GuideThis work aims to act as a readable resource for high school and college athletes - and their coaches - on balancing sports with study and making the transition to college athletics as smooth and efficient as possible. It covers: the best way to deal with college recruiters; what kind of scholarships and other types of funding are available; the right questions to ask when assessing a college coach or programme; how to approach and market the athlete to his or her chosen programme; how to balance academic and athletic demands; how to get the most from classes; and how to plan for the future. |
