MORE SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
When the topic of athletic scholarships comes up, most people only think of the 4-year NCAA or NAIA colleges. But did you know that many 2-year Community/Junior colleges offer sports scholarships, too?
And for thousands of athletes, Junior College is their stepping stone to a scholarship at a 4-year college.
There are more than 500 member institutions in the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) http://www.njcaa.org/ that offer athletic scholarships.
What sports are sponsored by the NJCAA?
Try Baseball, Basketball, Bowling, Cross Country, Football, Golf, Ice Hockey, Indoor & Outdoor Track and Field, Lacrosse, Softball, Soccer, Swimming & Diving, Tennis,
Volleyball and Wrestling. Some sports are offered in both Fall and Spring.
NJCAA scholarships. Their athletic scholarships are called "Athletic Grants-In-Aid," and are awarded using the NJCAA Letter of Intent, by which an individual commits to play for a
specific institution for one year. An NJCAA athlete is allowed 2 seasons of competition in any sport at an NJCAA college, if they have not participated at any intercollegiate level during 2 seasons previously.
Why would an athlete consider NJCAA?
If their high school academics disqualified them from eligibility for an NCAA or NAIA school, an athlete might consider a year at an NJCAA college, where they can continue to hone their athletic skills while rebuilding their GPA at the college level. Eligibility requirements are so much easier: just be a high school graduate or possess a GED.
