    WAG Scholarships to keep doing gymnastics in college.

    My mom won’t pay for me to keep doing gymnastics while I’m in college. She says it would be too much between work and school, but I still want to compete. Does anyone know of any scholarships so that I can still compete? I’m not going to a school with a gymnastics team nor I am a high enough...

    Parents Question about pursuing athletic scholarship

    Maybe it's a dumb question for you all, but I want to hear your inputs to understand it. I am an immigrant, so I don't fully understand American culture. I see a lot of people are very excited when their kids to accept an athletic scholarship. I understand it's a great achievement. However, a...

    Parents Do you hope for a D1 scholarship?

    Is that the goal for most parents of gymnasts? I feel like I hear that all the time, but it's not at all my goal for my child. Maybe it's easy for me to say that because my DD started late and isn't flying through the levels so probably couldn't get a gymnastics scholarship- too early to tell...

    Parents College Scholarships

    Hi all My daughter is Canadian, is currently 16 yrs old, and would like to compete in gymnastics at the US College Level. She is currently competing at level 9, but has a level 10 vault.

    Parents Probability of scholarships.

    Just a general question that I thought of as I was browsing some threads here... What would you say the ratio is for girls at your gym who make it to level 10 get scholarships? For me, I don't see it as something that is so "impossible". Maybe it's just the gym we are at, but this year, all...

    WAG Non- NCAA Gymnastics Scholarships

    Hi guys, I have been searching high and low for just about any kind of scholarship to help me pay for college. During that process it seemed like there was some scholarship for just about every sport except gymnastics. I'm not talking about NCAA but foundations and organizations that give out...

    WAG URGENT: gymnastics essay scholarship

    Today my French teacher informed me of a contest where I have a chance to win a 12,000$+ renewable scholarship to the university I want to attend! I must write a short essay (800 words approximately) about something that has impacted my life- so of course I chose gymnastics with his approval...

    WAG How does your gym recognize/celebrate those who get scholarships?

    DD gym doesn't do anything really. No sign or announcement. The gym DD did a camp at this summer had banners for everyone who received a scholarship (or made it to state/regionals/nationals). How does your gym do it?

    MAG College scholarships and difficulty finding a boys team in my area

    I'm 15 and going to be a sophomore this fall. I started gymnastics in 8th grade, so I've been doing it for about 2 years now. I've recently started stressing out on college scholarships and thinking I have low chances on getting one. Here are the problems: 1. I have lessons once a week for an...

    Parents Do Cheerleading scholarships exist in College?

    I have previously posted that my youngest DD wants to try Cheer as a sport. Which we will be doing next month. I know Gymnastics scholarships exist, but what about Cheer scholarships? Don't get the wrong impression here, we are not doing sports or any extra curricular activities for...

    Parents Do gymnastics scholarships exist?

    I have a good friend who has a daughter who clearly has a gift for gymnastics. She is almost 5 and very strong, coordinated, etc. They have been holding off on enrolling her in a class b/c of the cost (they live in a very pricey area which doesn't help). She has recently started taking a...

    WAG scholarships by the numbers

    There is another thread about early verbal commitments for college scholarships, the fairness of it, and whether it ruins the chances of other gymnasts who have taken a little longer to get to L10. It got me thinking about the true chances of girls getting scholarships. There is a number...

    are my chances of getting a college scholarship ruined?

I was supposed to compete as a level 10 but an ankle injury kept me from doing the harder skills, and eventually i lost them, so this season im competing as a level 8 and im scared my chances of getting a scholarship to Ohio State are gone. I have another...

    College scholarship discussion MOVED from 'Should DD quit due to lack of progression'

    If the main reason you're keeping her in gymnastics is because you hope she's going to get a college scholarship, don't. I mean, I'm sure many/most of the parents on Chalk Bucket have a least a bit of a fantasy of a college gymnastics scholarship in the back of their head, but let's face it, as...

    with 2013 level changes affect college scholarship potentials?

    With the new level changes in 2013 for compulsory levels, I'm assuming this will change the optional levels as well. What are your thoughts on whether this will change which girls the colleges will look at for scholarships. Will they begin to look at the new 8-10's or will they continue to just...

    Any Canadians (MAG) here who have obtained NCAA scholarship??

Athletic resume & video was done as a Gr.9 project this year, we are "vaguely" familiar with the rules & timeframes of when you can do what within the NCAA (ie, contact coaches, etc) and trying to get a gameplan in place for the...
