COLLEGE GYMNASTICS RECRUITING AND SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION
Our college gymnastics recruiting service can help you when applying for college gymnastic scholarships. It doesn't matter how good you are, to get recruited and be in line for a college gymnastics scholarship you need to tell the gym coaches who you are and why you deserve to be recruited. COACHES CANNOT EVALUATE YOUR POTENTIAL FOR GYMNASTIC SCHOLARSHIPS IF THEY DON’T KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE.
Not all athletic scholarships are full ride like football and basketball, so called "head count" sports; most are classed as "equivalency" sports, like men's gymnastics and division 2, women's gymnastics. Put simply this means that coaches can "share" their allocation between a larger number of gymnasts. Division 1 women's gymnastics is classed as a "head count" sport and 12 FULL-RIDE SCHOLARSHIPS are awarded by each college in division 1. In total there is about 810 gymnastic scholarships available to girls in the NCAA alone.
The process of finding and contacting coaches and dealing with the rules and regulations enforced by the NCAA is quite a daunting process for both athletes and parents. The use of our professional sports scholarship recruiting service is a must for all athletes who are serious about gymnastics at college level.
Many fine young athletes are overlooked each year because they didn't submit their gymnastics scholarship resume to the "right" colleges or left out vital information. It’s also a fact that many colleges simply don't allocate all of their gymnastic recruiting funds because "suitable" athletes didn't approach them.
The NCAA allows each division 1 gymnastics program 6.3 scholarships for men and 12 for women. In division 2 the ratio is 5.4 scholarships for men and 6 for women.
As a high school gymnast you should be aware that the standard at college level is very high. I would recommend that you attend a few meets to gauge the actual intensity gymnastics at this level. Remember that only the absolute top gymnasts will be approached with offers.
Most gymnasts will have to market themselves. You can try to do this yourself or use our recruiting service.
IMPORTANT: You are not breaching any NCAA rules by using our recruiting service When you apply for a gymnastics scholarship.
