Is it possible to have a full sport scholarship to a college and then use that scholarship 4 some other major?

Any major will work, most likely... there aren't usually "major-specific" strings attached.\n\nBUT, I can almost guarantee that you'll totally lose the scholarship if you quit the sport.

Yes!\nGo to: www.afbe.org\nThat's Athletes For A Better Education.\nIt's not free, but they have a whole recruiting process set up.\nThey also provide free links to the NCAA and other helpful sites.\nThey have a very good reputation!\nAs for advice:\n1. Keep your goals in line with your talent. If you're not near UCLA's level, choose schools that you can play at.\n2. Get and keep your grades as high a possible. A coach's first question is almost always about academics. They already know you can play!\n3. Go to www.ncaa.org; Find out your high school core course requirements. Visit the "Clearinghouse"\n4. Take the SAT as soon and as often as you can. The more you take it, the higher your score will be; Translation, the better academic school you can attend.\n5. Fill out your FAFSA Federal aid application, It's free money if you qualify. It's in addition to many athletic scholarships.\n6. Fill out your state financial aid forms (Same reason)

yes, yes you can.  many colleges offer sports medecine or physical training as programs.  SFSU has a good program, among others all over the world.

What is this for, College?\n\nIf so, I hope you are doing really well and can just get a full-ride scholarship to a college.

Yes you can.  You probably will have to take placement tests for the college you have chosen to attend.

OF COURSE TRANSFERRING FROM ONE UNIVERSITY, OR COLLEGE, LOCATED IN A CERTAIN COUNTRY TO ANOTHER COLLEGE OR UNIV IS PERMISSIBLE, BUT - MAKE SURE YOU CHECK WITH THE UNIV OR COLLEGE YOUR "TRANSFERRING TO" TO ASCERTAIN IF THEY WILL ACCEPT THE CREDITS YOU ALREADY EARNED.  IF THIS UNIV WILL NOT, CHOSE ANOTHER UNIV IN THE SAME AREA THAT "WILL" ACCEPT THE CREDITS YOU'VE ALREADY EARNED.  IF YOU CAN'T FIND ONE THAT WILL ACCEPT IT, MAYBE YOU SHOULD FINISH IN THE COUNTRY YOU STARTED IN?  MY BROTHER HAD TO GO 5 YRS TO COMPLETE HIS 4 YEAR DEGREE BECAUSE OF THIS.  COST HIM A LOT MORE MONEY TO EARN A 4 YEAR DEGREE.

I would lean towards the sports were you were excellent enough to get scholarship with. Football, basketball, softball, etc. Some other sports that are great but have rare scholorships are Golf, volleyball, tennis, etc.

Depends on what your Bs are in.\n\nAlso, you can get scholarships that don't depend on your grades -- things through your parents' workplaces, and also things that you get by volunteering at various organizations.  I knew lots of people who got scholarships those two ways.\n\nAlso, your test scores (PSAT, SAT, and ACT) seem to carry more weight than your actual grades.  Four As and 2 Bs, plus really excellent test scores should be able to get you something.  Especially if there are extenuating circumstances.  I took Physics as a junior (when I should have taken it as a senior, but I was being pig-headed), and got a B.  But I still got a full-tuition scholarship, and some extras.

Yes you can, but you will also need to take the SAT's and provide your scores to the college of your choice.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAT\n\nKõikke head.

You should contact your college to review their scholarship to see if any of them fall in your category.  I have never heard of a scholarship for this condition.

Well a scholarship is usually earned by the student on some academic or sport specific field and then there are grants and yes there are a number of grants that anyone with certain income levels are given the most common of these grants is called the Pell Grant and probably the second most popular would be the Stanford Bennet grant both are government funde. Good luck if you look any further than this. From someone who went to college on both.

You have a good chance of being accepted, but academic scholarships to such schools are ultra-competitive. There are probably plenty of people applying who have a 3.9 or 4.0

I know a little bit about this. Hopefully more than you know now.\n\n1) You can. Anyone can enter the draft. A guy I went to college with applied for the NBA draft even though he was lousy and had no chance whatsoever of getting picked. He just thought it would be cool.\n\n2) I know it involved filing official papers with the league.\n\n3) As long as you don't hire an agent, you can maintain any college eligibility you might have left. If you hire an agent, that is the end of that.

It's possible, but only the issuer of the scholarship can answer that.  You may want to review the conditions of your scholarship to see.  I know I won a scholarship from my dad's union, and I got half up front for fall semester, but I had to bring in my report card before I got the second half for spring.

Yes, there are scholarships available from Harvard, because our son turned one down. I believe in his case it was offered to him, because he had a 4.0 grade average throughout his highschool years.

All of the above. (grades, rank, standardized tests)\n\nAnd if your application is not spell-checked and grammar checked, forget it.\n\nEdit: No idea what the person below me is talking about. None of the Ivies give out athletic scholarships. The people who go to college at an Ivy do it the same way anyone else does: student loans. They are just in debt longer than anyone else.

You can. but you shouldn't. Colleges have different standards for different majors. Maybe you're good enough for the literature program, but not engineering. You check off engineering on the application, and now you have to qualify for both programs. You're making it harder on yourself. Wait until you get there, and then pursue a double major if you want.
