This was an invaluable aid in our recruitment process. It is a very easy to follow guide for letter writing, organization of schools, and user-friendly in it’s entire format. While using this book as a starting place, it was necessary to find additional resources of information. But this was great to get us started.
We have recommended this book to other sports parents, many have found it helpful in a very long, confusing process.

As the parent of a high school junior in the throes of preparing for College, I wish I had found this book 5 years ago. It is easily the best organized step-by-step handbook I’ve ever seen to prepare for scholarship applications. Many of the suggestions apply beyond sports. It especially helped me communicate with my son about what we needed to do.
I recommend it to all teens and their parents.

This “how to” book is a must have for every family with teenagers interested in sports. It fills the gap left by overworked high school/career/college counselors who don’t have the time to create a personalized approach to scholarship applications. As early as 13 yrs old, students and their parents should use this book to guide their thinking about schools and scholarships. It is systematic and easy to follow, and its suggestions work. The authors continue to update it every two years, so information is timely. I highly recommend it.

As a Baseball Coach and Author, I can honestly say this is one of the best sports scholarship books in the market today. The layout is an easy to read workbook format that takes a step by step approach to applying and representing the student athlete.
Colleges are looking for student athlete’s with intellect, integrity and ability. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn how the scholarship process works and how to make it work for the student athlete of today and tomorrow.
This is a must read.
