Guide for the College Bound Athlete NCAA 2009-2010 Guide for the College-Bound Student Athlete This guide was recommended as a resource during our "Preparing for College" Workshop presented by Laura Coble, former ASU Women's Golf Coach.
This Guide addresses issues for three important groups of readers:
High School students who hope to participate in college athletics at an NCAA college or university;
Parents and legal guardians; and
High school counselors and athletics administrators
Twice annually, Chapters report to the home office their participants who have earned all As and/or Bs (or the equivalent) on their report cards. All participants, regardless of age, are eligible for this recognition. At the end of each semester, participants should bring their report card to their Chapter. A member of the staff should verify the grades, and indicate such in the database record of the participant under Participant Tracking. The home office pulls the current list from the database and creates high-quality certificates which are then signed by executive director Joe Louis Barrow, Jr. The certificates are mailed directly to the Chapter for distribution.
