So... you want to get an athletic scholarship and play soccer in college.
You have been an all-state player on your high school and club teams, you've attended all the right camps and have played in all the right tournaments. You are, from a financial standpoint, heavily invested in the sport. You are expecting your steady investment over the years
to pay off with a scholarship.
Well, I am afraid that if you rely solely on soccer to get a scholarship,
you will be greatly disappointed in the amount.
You should start familiarizing yourself with the term "student-athlete"
with the emphasis on "student."

• Soccer scholarships are partial scholarships. See "head count" and "equivalent" sports.
• They are not guaranteed.
