Getting recruited as an athlete is one of the biggest strengths you can possibly have to get accepted into a top university. Every university needs to fill in a class of rowers, tennis players, golfers, squash players, fencers, basketball players, football players, track and field, volleyball players, and the list goes on. However, understanding the process to get recruited is a tricky and often times complex process. Where do you start? What are the appropriate steps to take to get noticed by coaches? Getting a vouch of approval from a coach at the college or institution will signal to the admissions committee to consider your application seriously and is a sure fire way to get an acceptance letter.
