Junior College football is very popular in different parts of the country. Junior College level football is extremely competitive. Players should meet Div 2 requirementsSlide15
Other schoolsIf you don’t limit yourselves location-wise, there are endless possibilities
Sometimes the best move is to get away and get a new experience in a different part of the country
Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? Look into schools there.Slide16
How much $The only thing that matters is:
TOTAL COST OF ATTENDANCE
= (
Tutition + Fees + Room & Board + Books + Supplies + Personal Expenses + Transportation) – (Athletic Scholarships + Academic Scholarships + Private Scholarships)
The remaining money is what you, your parents/guardians, or loans have to cover each year.
DON’T WORRY ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY YOU GET FOR FOOTBALL! CONCENTRATE ON THE TOTAL COST OF ATTENDANCE!Slide17
What’s Left?There’s a lot on your plate
Continue to perform well academically
Continue to take part in the Strength & Conditioning program
