The college application process for student-athletes is similar to that for non-athletes. One major difference is that most student-athletes only apply to the college they have accepted a scholarship offer from.
This blog post will help you to understand what to expect during the college application process.
Using the Common Application is a popular way for students to apply to colleges and universities. The Common Application is an online application that allows you to apply to multiple colleges using one application.
To use the Common Application, you will first need to create an account and then add the colleges to which you want to apply. You will then complete the application, which includes personal information, academic history, and extracurricular activities.
To complete your college application, you will need to have certain documents and information ready.
• Transcripts
You will need to request official transcripts from your high school and send them to the colleges you are applying to.
• Test scores
Most colleges require test scores such as SAT/ACT. For international students also TOEFL, IELTS, or DuoLingo scores are often required. You can send these in directly from the platform where you took the test.
• Essay
Colleges require you to write an essay. This is to show them why you want to apply and why you are a good fit.
Following up on the status of your application is important. Check in with your admissions officer or coach, to find out if anything is missing. Keeping track of your application process also shows your dedication to college acceptance.
By understanding the process and staying organized, you can make the college application process as a student-athlete as smooth as possible. Remember to contact your admissions officer or coach if you have any questions, and keep track of your application status to ensure everything is in order.
