RECRUITING TIPS- BAD GRADES WON’T MATTER IF YOUR TALENT IS GOOD ENOUGH


RECRUITING TIPS- BAD GRADES WON’T MATTER IF YOUR TALENT IS GOOD ENOUGH

If you are one of the best student-athletes in the nation, then part of this statement is true.  However, grades are such an important factor in the recruiting process.  Grades are a huge part of financial aid, scholarship packaging, and athlete retention.  Most coaches won't invest their time and money recruiting a student-athlete who may not be admitted into their school or is going to fail out or become academically ineligible.  If you don't have a 2.5 GPA or higher, over 50% of college programs won't be able to get you past the admissions office.  Grades are becoming the single most important factor in recruiting. Admissions and administration offices are putting more pressure on athletic departments to recruit student-athletes that succeed once they get into school.  Sure you may be ‘eligible’ to be recruited with poor grades, but many schools are not going to recruit you.
