A-Z of College Recruiting & Sports Scholarships for International Students

In episode 92 we talk about the involvement of parents or guardians throughout the college recruitment process. Parents or guardians must always be involved, however there are certain points in time throughout the process where they need to take a backseat. At particular stages, too much involvement and control from parents and guardians can actually hurt your opportunities more than they can help. We explain when and why this is.

Throughout episode 91 we explain who deserves sports scholarships and why. Maybe you are deserving of one right now or maybe you aren’t. By the end of the episode you will know whether or not you deserve one at this point in time. We talk about what you can do to increase your chances and why coaches give particular student athletes scholarships and others none.

In episode 90 we talk about finding the perfect college. Is there such a thing? You will have to listen in to find out. There are many different variables when considering what makes a great college, not only objectively but also subjectively. What is it that you want? What is the perfect college for you? We talk about what makes the perfect college, or rather the perfect college for you.

In episode 89 we talk about financially preparing for college. We share examples of how costs compare with US university fees and the cost of living with the costs of the same things in other countries. We then share information on how you can make things easier for yourself in your first year of college in the US. You never want to be under financial stress or pressure so we help you and inform you on how things can be made easier.

In this weeks episode we talk about your ego. It is not your friend, it is not your amigo. Your ego and what you think about yourself and your own athletic abilities mean nothing. Your ego means nothing to a coach, your parents opinion of you means nothing to a coach. They will formulate their own opinions of you. You need to go into this without an ego to settle in socially, compete more often and to gain the trust of your coaches and your teammates. A great episode for all prospective college athletes.
