Synopsis

Every young athlete's dream is to earn a college scholarship. This is especially true today with skyrocketing out of state tuition, not to mention the cost of living expenses for college students. The information in this report will optimize your chances of making the dream of a college scholarship a reality. Scholarship or bust is broken down into four sections.Part one: Self AssessmentDo you have what it takes to earn a starting spot on your team let alone a full athletic scholarship? The report will take you through a brutally honest self assessment questionnaire to help you set realistic goals. It gives you a starting point to see what you may need to do to optimize your chances of earning a scholarship to the school of your dreams. Some people have a longer road than others in order to get to the final destination. Part two: TrainingMajor college athletes are not only genetically gifted but also physically superior.

These drills focus on foot and hand quickness as well as ways to improve your reaction times.Part Three: Mental One of the biggest challenges to achieving any goal is self-doubt.

"The mind always fails before the body"- Arnold SchwarzeneggerPart Four: Who to contactMarketing is critical to getting the exposure you need to get noticed by the schools you are interested in attending. You have done all the preparation needed but now you have to know who to contact and how to do it. This section covers all of these issues in full. Part Five: A success storyThe reason I wrote this book is because I went through this entire process myself to earn a full scholarship to an SEC school. The ideal situation is that you get an offer from the school of your dreams BEFORE you finish high school. I took the longer route and walked-on to the team first. I discuss all the challenges I faced and how I successfully overcame them. The economy today makes it even more challenging to send an aspiring scholar-athlete to college. The costs continue to rise and earning this scholarship will take a huge financial burden off of your parents. My hope is that you utilize the tips in this report and allow your dreams to come true as well as helping your parents out. It's a true win-win!
