Approximately 2,000 colleges award athletic scholarships each year. Here’s what you can do to get one of them.
To complete this How-To you will need:
Athletic skill
Decent grades
An updated resume
And a take-charge attitude
A video highlighting your athletic skills
Step 1: Improve your grades
Improve your grades as much as possible. You can’t play for a college if you can’t meet its academic requirements.
Step 2: Create a resume
Include your junior varsity and varsity experience, extracurricular activities, your grades, the major you plan to choose in college, and any awards you’ve received.
Step 3: List your dream schools
Make a list of your dream schools and note the appropriate coach and his or her contact information.
Step 4: Compose a letter
Compose a master letter stating your interest in playing college athletics. Include your high school coach’s contact information.
Step 5: Make a video
If you don’t have one already, record and edit together a video showing you in action. Make copies to send out, and post it on a free video-sharing site to make sure it’s widely available.
Tip: If you have any press clippings about your athletic achievements, be sure to include copies of them with your letters.
Step 6: Personalize each letter
Personalize each letter with a line or two about what you admire about that particular university and/or their athletic program. Send each coach on your list a package containing the letter, video, resume, and any press clippings via registered mail.
Tip: If money is no object, you can find companies online that will circulate your athletic resume for you and create a professional-quality video of your skills. Such services usually cost $1,000 and up.
Step 7: "Showcase" your talent
Attend as many “showcase tournaments” as you can—that is, special events where college coaches and scouts get to see prospective scholarship students play.
Tip: Gifted athletes who are able should consider transferring to a school that is known for its team, even if it means a long commute or a family move. Recruiters are more likely to attend games featuring a “star” team.
Step 8: Be persistent
Be persistent. If you don’t hear back from any of the coaches, send them a follow-up. In the meantime, decide on a second tier of schools you’re willing to consider and start the process again.

College Scholarships in the National Guard!
LOOKING FOR A WAY TO PAY FOR SCHOOL?
The Guard is your ticket to a successful education. We offer benefits like: 100% Tuition Assistance—up to $18,000 over four years; the Montgomery G.I. Bill; Post 9/11 G.I. Bill; Army National Guard Kicker; National Guard scholarships that can pay up to $10,000 a year plus a $1,200 book allowance; and student loan repayment programs. It’s a great way to pay for college and put cash in your pocket. We can even help you get your GED. Check out all the details.
Money for College: 100% Tuition Assistance
The Guard can pay up to 100% of your college tuition and general fees, based on in-state public institution tuition rates—that’s up to $18,000 over four years.* Plus, many states offer additional college funding. Your recruiter has all the information.
Montgomery G.I. Bill
In addition to paying your college tuition, we’ll send you a monthly allowance of up to $333 for expenses—about $11,000 over a four-year period. Best of all, this money is sent directly to you (not to your school) to spend on books, supplies—or anything you want. Your recruiter will have all the details.
Post-9/11 G.I. Bill
For Soldiers with at least 90 days of Active Duty service on or after September 11, 2001, the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill can cover up to 100% of your tuition, depending on the length of time you’ve served. You may also be eligible for an annual stipend of $1,000 for books and supplies, and your benefits may be transferrable to you dependents.
Army National Guard Kicker
The Army National Guard Kicker supplement to the Montgomery G.I. Bill pays up to $350 per month in living expenses—up to $12,600 over 36 months. You’ll need to apply and qualify for this program. In order to qualify, you must:
•Be attending an accredited school
•Be a traditional (part-time) Army National Guard Soldier in an active drilling status
•Be eligible beginning the day you join the Army National Guard
•Remain in the Guard during the complete term of your college courses
Reserve Officer’s Training Corps (ROTC) scholarships
ROTC is a college elective that allows you to earn a commission straight out of college as a second lieutenant in the Army. The course consists of both academic classes and hands-on training—mental and physical challenges that will help you succeed in college and beyond. Participation takes just a few hours per week.
Scholarships include:
•A wide range of merit-based scholarships that pay up to full college tuition
•Additional funds to pay for books, supplies and other school fees
•Tax-free stipends up to $500 per month if you qualify
All ROTC scholarships require a service commitment. Check with your recruiter for details.
Student Loan Repayment Program
For Soldiers and officers who have an existing student loan obligation at the time of enlistment in the Guard, there is a program that may pay up to $50,000 for certain jobs, with a six- or eight-year enlistment as a member of a unit.
In addition, current Guard members who extend their enlistment contract for a minimum period of six years are also eligible for this program, provided they meet certain requirements, including a qualifying score on the Armed Forces Qualifying Test and being in a valid Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) Military Occupational Specialty (MOS):
Guard speak for “your job.” Every job title in the Guard has a code, using a number and letter. For example, a Cavalry Scout is MOS 19D (19 Delta). in a National Guard unit.
Your state may have its own funding packages in addition to these federal programs. Ask your local recruiter.
The Guard has other programs and services to help you earn additional college credits, prepare for your graduate school exam, or even get your GED—all while earning your Guard pay. Find out more.
*Up to $4,500 per year, based on your commitment.
