COLLEGE BOARD www.collegeboard.com College Board Tests Institutions may handle and weigh these test scores in a different way. For example, if you take exams more than once, some institutions will consider the highest combined score, some will consider the SAT Writing score while others may not. College Board now offers the choice of only reporting certain of your scores to the institutions of your choice. When you register you are given the opportunity to have your scores reported to up to 5 institutions for free and more at an additional charge. Before you send all of your scores to the schools you are interested in you may want to find out what their policy is. Test scores will no longer be accepted as reported on a high school transcript so always request that your SAT and ACT scores be transmitted to the NCAA Eligibility Center by using code 9999. College Planning CollegeBoard.com offers many college planning tools including My College QuickStart™ a free personalized planning kit for all PSAT/NMSQT takers. You may: o View a detailed online PSAT/NMSQT score report o Prepare for the SAT using a study plan based on your results o Connect to detailed profiles of suggested colleges, majors, and careers College Research CollegeBoard.com offers numerous research tools. Visit the site to learn more. College Finances CollegeBoard.com offers valuable information and tools about the cost of college and how to finance school. COLLEGE VISITS For recruiting purposes, there are two types of college visits: Unofficial and Official Unofficial visit Any visit by you and your parents to a college campus paid for by you or your parents. The only expense you may receive from the college is three complimentary admissions to a home athletics contest. You may make as many unofficial visits as you like and may take those visits at any time. The only restriction is that you may not speak to the coach on campus during a dead period. Official Visit Any visit to a college campus by you and your parents paid for by the college. The college may pay all or some of the following expenses: • Your transportation to and from the college; • Room and meals (three per day) while you are visiting the college; and • Reasonable entertainment expenses, including three complimentary admissions to a home athletics contest. Before you make an official visit to a college, you must provide that college with a copy of your high school transcript (Division I only) and SAT, ACT or PLAN score and register with the Eligibility Center. General Tips Any time you plan on visiting a college campus email the coach to let them know and request a few moments or a more in depth meeting depending on your interest. If possible, plan your visits for a time when the college isn’t on break. If you are watching the home game of a college you are interested in you may be able to visit with the coach after the game. If you do, always introduce yourself by name and high school. You may speak to a coach on their campus at any time without violating Recruiting Rules except during a Dead Period. If you want to speak to the visiting team’s coach you must follow the Recruiting Rules since you aren’t on their campus. In the case where this is allowed email them ahead of time to request a few moments after the game. Any time you visit the campus of a program you are interested in you should research the school and its hockey program ahead of time, especially if you have a meeting with the coach planned. The coach may incorrectly gauge your interest based on your knowledge or lack of knowledge about the program. Take a few moments to visit the program’s website and see what their schedule is like, how their season is going or went, what conference they compete in and so on. A coach appreciates it when you’ve done your research. Be wary of a coach who “bashes” other institutions or their coaching staffs. Form your opinions based on information you have gathered directly or from trusted sources. Recruiting is a business and like any other business, some are more cutthroat than others. A visit is the best time to gauge your “gut” feeling about a school so pay attention to your instincts! Questions for the College Coach Player Personnel How many players do you carry on your roster? How many players are you replacing through my recruiting class? How many players typically travel and see substantial time? Do you play freshmen? Describe the role of scholarship vs. non-scholarship athletes? Do you hold try outs? Program Describe a typical week during fall season, off season and non-traditional season? What are the program goals? Does your program receive good budgetary and institutional support? What equipment does each player receive? Team Describe the personality of the team? Do the players live together? Coach What is your coaching style? What is your coaching philosophy? Describe your communication style. How long have you been at this school and how long do you plan on staying? Academics Will I miss many classes because of games/travel? Do players in your program graduate on time? What is the team’s GPA and how does it compare to the dept and the school? How many of your players are on academic probation? What academic

    The National Collegiate Athletic Association Cartel: Why It Exists, How It Works, and What It Does

    Author's personal copy Rev Ind Organ DOI 10.1007/s11151-017-9590-z The National Collegiate Athletic Association Cartel: Why it Exists, How it Works, and What it Does 1,2,3 1,2,3 Allen R. Sanderson • John J. Siegfried Ó Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2017 Abstract In this essay we consider why American colleges and universities par- ticipate in big-time commercialized intercollegiate sports, and how sports came to play such a prominent role on American college and university campuses. We also review how the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) developed as a body to regulate player safety and transformed itself into an economic regulator, the means by which the NCAA attempts to maintain its control, increase revenues, and reduce costs for college sports programs. We also examine how the organization succeeds in the face of institutional characteristics that imply that its cartel activities would be doomed. Finally, we speculate on what changes might be on the horizon for the NCAA and college athletics.

  • Things to Know About Volleyball Recruiting

    Things to Know About Volleyball Recruiting

    THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT VOLLEYBALL RECRUITING Terms to Know NCAA Clearinghouse or Eligibility Center (eligibilitycenter.org) – is the NCAA office that certifies a student-athletes academic credentials to be eligible for Division I and II athletics. You cannot make an official visit to a DI or DII school without being at least registered with the clearinghouse. NCAA Division I – 325 Volleyball teams at some of the most well known schools (Florida, Texas, Duke, Rutgers, Seton Hall, Rider etc). Division I schools are permitted to offer scholarships to up to 12 student athletes for volleyball. Schools that are “fully funded” will only offer full scholarships. Partially funded programs will split scholarships and stack with academic and need based aid money to make you an offer. The season is August and into December, with off-season training through the spring and even summer months at many schools. This is the highest level of college athletics, and is the most demanding. NCAA Division II – 250ish Volleyball teams at lesser known schools (Felician, Georgian Court, Tampa, Lemoyne, Millersville, CW Post). Division II schools are permitted to divide the value of 8 full scholarships among a larger number of student athletes. Many DII schools only have between 1-3 scholarships, which they divide and stack with academic and need based aid, but seldom is it a full package. The season lasts from August through November, with either a limited spring training season, or they have recently approved the addition of beach volleyball as a spring sport which some schools may be adding soon. NCAA Division III – 425 Volleyball teams at a variety of schools (including NYU, Chicago, Johns Hopkins, Williams, Scranton, Kean, St.

    Managing Athletic Department Touch Points: a Case Study of One Institution Using Importance-Performance Analysis

    Journal of Intercollegiate Sport, 2013, 6, 196-212 © 2013 Human Kinetics, Inc. www.JIS-Journal.com ARTICLE Managing Athletic Department Touch Points: A Case Study of One Institution Using Importance-Performance Analysis Chris Chard Brock University Joanne MacLean University of the Fraser Valley Brent Faught Brock University Athlete recruitment and delivery of the sport experience are critical components in determining the success of intercollegiate athletic teams and programs. Here, the athletic department brand and the associations of the brand achieved through “touch points” influence student-athletes’ perceptions of the athletic department. The purpose of this study therefore was to understand the perceptions held by student-athletes about the brand of the athletic department. Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) and brand touch point theory were used to accomplish the study’s objective. Specifically, the authors analyzed surveys from 149 student-athletes based at one university in Ontario, Canada to consider athletic department “touch points.” The results proved beneficial for highlighting areas of discrepancy between deemed importance and performance on key recruitment and delivery attributes including scholarship support, spectator support, special treatment, recognition, and quality of facilities. Keywords: university athletics, brand, touch points, recruitment, retention, importance-performance analysis One of the fundamental requirements of a successful university athletic depart- ment is the ability to attract the best student-athletes to represent the institution in varsity competitions (Dailing, 2002; Le Crom, Warren, Clark, Marolla, & Gerber, 2009; Letawsky, Schneider, Pedersen, & Palmer, 2003; Ryan, Groves, & Schenider, 2007).

Chapel Hill 2016 Approved By: Nels Popp Erianne Weight John Brunner © 2016 James P. Richards III ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT James P. Richards III; The Impact of a Significant College Baseball Stadium Project on Attendance, Recruiting and On-Field Success (Under the direction of Nels Popp) The purpose of the study was to determine how building a new college baseball stadium or conducting a significant renovation effects on-field success, recruiting and attendance when comparing the three years before and after the stadium project. Recruiting data was obtained from Perfect Game, while attendance and winning percentage data was obtained from information released by the NCAA and on athletic department websites to determine if the millions of dollars athletic departments are spending on facility upgrades lead to improvements in these areas. The study focused on the top-11 NCAA Division I baseball conferences and was narrowed to a sample of 41 baseball programs that conducted a significant stadium project between 2007 and 2013. There were no findings showing a significant relationship between a stadium project and winning games. However, new stadiums led to a significant increase in commitments from top-500 recruits and extensive stadium projects led to an average of an additional 493 fans per game in the three years following the venue opening.

    Innovation, Achievement and Excellence Have Been the Hallmarks of Robert Mulcahy’S Tenure As Director of Athletics at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey

    Robert Mulcahy Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Innovation, achievement and excellence have been the hallmarks of Robert Mulcahy’s tenure as Director of Athletics at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. Since coming to Rutgers in 1998, Mulcahy has been the guiding force in the continued development of the university’s Division of Intercollegiate Athletics program. He is committed to the ideal that Rutgers Athletics will provide the best possible experience for its student-athletes. Mulcahy’s vision for Rutgers Athletics has led the division to unprecedented development and accomplishment. Wide-ranging improvements in facilities have allowed the division to function at greater efficiency, thus enabling opportunity for greater success for Rutgers student-athletes, both in the classroom and on the playing field. Mulcahy’s leadership has brought reality to this vision. He has been responsible for raising the division’s endowment by $4 million, and was instrumental in developing and securing outside revenue totaling $24 million, resulting in the renovation, and construction, of a number of facilities. Capital projects from this funding include the expansion and enhancement of the Hale Center, allowing it to become one of the finest of its kind nationally, with an expansive strength and conditioning facility, a state of the art training room and academic support facilities which include classrooms, study rooms and computer labs. Rutgers Stadium has enjoyed significant enhancements under Mulcahy’s watch, as well, and now features a state-of-the-art scoreboard and Field Turf playing surface, all helping to ensure the best possible experience for student-athletes and fans. Other projects have resulted in a modern, state-of-the-art academic support laboratory in the Louis Brown Athletic Center (the “RAC”), as well as an expanded weight training complex, and a modern media headquarters and interview facility.
