Advice for Recruiting - #2

“The Main Ingredients”
Part 1

I often give talks on the college recruiting process to HS, club and camp groups. I break down the process into 4 categories of consideration:

1. Academics – Find the schools that are the best challenge for you. Be sure they have the areas of study you are interested As many will not know yet what they want to study and some of you will change your mind, make sure you find out how one goes about deciding on a major at each school. Is it easy to change direction after a year or 2? NCAA rules give you 2 years before you need to declare a major – plenty of time to figure things out (and change your mind!)
