financial aid and how to maximize exposure when trying to secure a slotted position in a college-level athletic program. We take the mystery out of NCAA and NAIA recruiting guidelines to help you see how college coaches and prospects communicate, what to expect in the process and ultimately how offers can result. As the number of college choices can be overwhelming, we give you the data to help you qualify and shortlist the right schools to make your search more manageable. Among the many data points contained in the full profiles of each participating NCAA and NAIA College and University, where available, are data available detailing admission figures, average financial aid students are receiving, the real tuition amounts students are really paying, what you can expect to pay based on your income level and what actual ACT and SAT test score ranges are students needing to get into these schools. This is your one reference guide for those who want to identify their college or university of choice and understand the availability and process of obtaining athletic and academic financial aid.
