Description: As talented as a student may be on the field, he or she also needs to perform well in the classroom. And it doesn't end there. In order to be eligible to compete in NCAA sports, there are countless regulations on everything from grade-point average and SAT scores, to recruiting and academic credits. A student's college athletic career can be endangered because of one illegal recruiting visit or a high school English class that doesn't meet NCAA code.

The Student-Athlete's Guide to College not only helps clarify NCAA requirements (Prop 48), but helps students make all the right moves when it comes to making the transition from high school to college. It includes:
-- Information on how to "market" yourself, how to contact college coaches, and how to write letters and resumes
-- The complete, official NCAA eligibility rules for Divisions I, II, and III, with step-by-step explanations.
-- Interviews with prominent, Division I-A coaches
-- Advice on how to evaluate an athletic program -- what to look for
-- Tips on winning athletic scholarships
-- Techniques for the SAT/ACT, with a full-length practice test that predicts a student's score on both exams
-- Contact information for athletic associations, governing bodies, and academic organizations
