Congratulations again on your child’s commitment! While it might feel like everything is in place for next year, there are still a few important tasks student-athletes need to complete:

• Complete the application process: They must still apply to the university, follow all deadlines, and submit required materials.
• Apply to a backup school: Admission isn’t guaranteed until an official acceptance is issued, so it’s wise to apply to at least one backup school.
• Stay in touch with their future coach: Check in every 3–4 weeks to maintain communication and stay informed.
• Keep working hard: Staying focused academically and athletically will help ensure a smooth transition to college.
