But I know a major D1 player that payed less than $5K to a $60K school when all the aid, merit, etc was added to the athletic scholarship. Granted he was a very good student.
To get that deal you better be the "Total Package!"
You are wrong. D2 can't combine athletic and academic or it all counts against athletic budget. you can't get 10k for lax and 15 for academics. one or the other. get good grades. academic money is for 4 years. athletic is a 1 year contract only. if you need money for school. you need really good grades or you need to be at a school where your child is their reach student not the school being your kids reach school
My son received both athletic and academic at a D2 school. You are correct that athletic money is traditionally only a one year deal. I am sure some coaches have promised and kept their word on a (4) year athletic. Academic is for (4) years but keep in mind you need to maintain a 3.0 GPA in most schools. Perhaps I misread your post but again, a lax player can get both athletic and academic in D2...
They can get both at D1 and D2 schools. They just have to have high enough grades and test scores. Otherwise the total amount counts against the athletic allotment.
