Going through the college recruiting process is a long, tiring, yet exciting process. From getting your first letter from a college your freshman year to the phone calls and unofficial visits junior year to the official visits senior year, all in all it is a four year process. An athlete will never have an experience like this again. There are a few important things to consider before making your college decision.
Obviously you are getting recruited for swimming, but at the end of the day, sport should come second to the academics. As much as swimming dominates competitive swimmers’ lives, when it is time to hang up the cap and goggles your academics will take you much farther. Make sure to find schools that have great academic programs for what you are interested in. If you are undecided, then make sure they have the tools to help support student life and make declaring your major much easier.
College swimming is a commitment. A very large commitment. Your teammates will become your family. They will have your back and will want you to succeed in everything you do. When you visit on a recruit trip, try to read the team. See if they are putting on a show because they have recruits or see if that is actually how they act. If you feel uncomfortable around them, you may want to reconsider because those people will become your family and you will be spending a lot of your time with them.
