To figure out the likelihood of a high school football player’s success in college over 100 high school head football coaches were surveyed about their views on qualities high school football players need to move to the next level. The surveys were mailed, emailed, and followed by several phone calls if no response was received within four to six weeks. All coaches surveyed were members of the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) and have had high school football players recruited by division one colleges within the last five years. The survey questions sought the following details about the football players: (1) Academic ability; (2) Athletic ability; (3) Self-determination; (4) Character; (5) History of overcoming adversities. Lastly, the end goal after the surveys have been collected and evaluated is to offer high school football players valuable information about what is needed to be considered for a four-year college scholarship.

I feel that my GPA is not indicative of my current academic strength. During the first two years at the University of Illinois, I struggled to adapt to a new education system and a different cultural environment. However, in the following years, I excelled within the classroom. Despite originally declaring myself as a General Management major, I pushed myself to take more data driven electives. As a result, I was able to graduate with an additional Business Process Management major.

A gold plaque glistened on the stage, written on it was “Straight A’s All Three Years of Junior High”. Attending the academic ceremony as a 6th grader, I watched in awe as a few 8th-graders received this prestigious plaque. I thought to myself that I would work hard so that one day I could be on that stage and receive that award. For the rest of my Junior High career, I strove to get straight A’s in all of my classes. I remained persistent, focused, and dedicated.

My SAT scores aren’t the best because I lacked motivation to learn in high school and barely studied before taking the test. However, after graduating from high school, I stopped playing video games, which took a big part of my time, and motivated myself to become a life-long learner and improve every day. For example, during my first year at IU, I worked hard to be involved in campus organizations such as the Toastmasters Club and the Kelley Student Government while also working hard to get a 3.8 GPA. As a result of this effort, I got accepted into the Kelley School and the Business Honors Program. After transitioning from an average student in high school to a high achiever in college, I realized that any goal is achievable if one if willing

There is not many times where I give up on myself, but there was one time and it messed up my high school GPA. It was my sophomore year in biology class, where I finally gave up on myself. I absolutely hated biology, and I did not understand it at all. It was such a hard class for me I thought I was going to fail it as soon as I started the class. I would study all the time for the tests and still do horrible on the tests. I would do decent on the stuff we did in class, but that is because it was usually with a partner and they would do everything. It was about half way through the quarter and we just got a test back and like usual it was a D. At that moment, I gave up on myself and decided to do something different. I had a D in the class

I am a sophomore at Hamilton Southeastern High school, and currently plan to graduate in 2018. My GPA as of this moment is a 3.33, and I am an A, B honor roll student. Inside school I am a part of the Harry Potter Club, and play quidditch which is a sport having to do with Harry Potter. My aim in high school is to graduate with academic honors. Last school year I was not as involved with the school rather, I got involved with outside of school things. In 8th grade I was a part of the Junior high national honors society.

My GPA has been artificially deflated, and inaccurately represents my academic prowess. I attended three years of secondary school in Dubai, at an Indian CBSE certified school. The curriculum was entirely different from that of an American school. Each class that an 11th grade CBSE student took had, on average, a heavier course-load than that of an AP class. However, upon moving to Texas, my new school couldn't acknowledge the difficulty of these courses on my transcript, making it appear as if I'd only managed B's on level courses, when in reality, I’d ranked first in my grade.

There have been multiple experiences that I have had that would make me succeed at Penn State University. One experience is when I moved across the country. My freshman year I really struggled in high school. It was a big change and did not take it seriously enough. Then sophomore year came and I got a hang of it, but then I was hit with big news. My father tells me, in January, that we are moving to Scottsdale, Arizona In March. I was upset and shocked at first but then was really excited for this new experience. The worst part was leaving my mom, sisters, and grandparent’s all behind in New York. When I got there, I did not have any friends and was scarred about the change in school and the curriculum. After a while, I got the hang of it,

The most momentous challenge I’ve faced, has been the task of resurrecting my GPA. I have always been able to simply coast through classes with good grades. However, during the summer between my sophomore and junior year of high school, I recognized that I could not continue on such a path if I wished to succeed. Unfortunately, by that point my GPA was not the highest I desired it to be. Coming to a conclusion, I deduced, the only way to mend my GPA was by performing well in my studies from then on. However, that was not exactly how my plan was executed. During junior year, I had the intention of earning straight A’s and having at least three extracurricular activities. At the end of the first semester I had 2 extracurricular activities, one

Looking at my results from the previous semesters and the grades I was getting. I decided to meet with my counselor to discuss what I can do to improve my GPA, especially that I was thinking of UC Davis for med school. At the end of the fall semester, I figured that I am more interested in nursing particularly more than anything else. I went back to my counselor and asked him if it’s too late to change from biology in general to a more specific major. This is when he told me about all the different options that I have in my new major “nursing” and how It can benefit me since I can finish earlier than if I were to go to med school. We also started looking at different closer schools to apply for since I am not financially ready to move out

I am worried that my transcripts displayed weakness as a student because of my questionable GPA from freshman and sophomore year. Without making excuses for myself, I want to impress upon you the number of personal difficulties I faced during that time, including – but not limited to – several hospitalizations. After my sophomore year, I transferred

My parents’ divorce left my mom in a desperate state. She swallowed her pride and found a shelter through Boston Housing Authority for herself, my sisters, and me to reside. In the shelter, there was only one room and one bed, so I often found myself studying on the bathroom floor. I didn’t want to disturb my younger siblings, but I was determined to get my homework done. I maintained exceptional grades through secondary school despite my circumstance. Nevertheless, I am grateful for those moments. My battle with hunger and bullying transformed me into a tenacious and enterprising woman. If I had not experienced tribulations, I might have taken my education for

When I started the college admissions process in my junior year, I had no idea it would end in Worcester, Massachusetts at a small, Catholic liberal arts school named The College of the Holy Cross. I explored large private colleges and state schools, primarily in the South, close to the Atlantic, where I could root for iconic sports teams after trudging my books to the beach to study while indulging in some sun and surfing! Well, when it came down to deciding where to apply as a high school senior, my idea of the perfect school had moved well beyond concern about the climate. Suddenly, this was the last step before graduate school and then the real world. I would actually be living with these people on campus. I learned a lot about different

Growing up in a household sustained solely by one parent’s income was always challenging. My mother earned a decent wage, but my stepfather worked in an auto detailing shop, which was nowhere near lucrative in rainy Washington State. I only became cognizant of my family’s financial standing when it came to discuss financing college. Unlike most of my other friends, my parents didn’t have a college savings account waiting for me and they didn’t have the funds that would be needed to pay my quarterly tuition. This matter-of-fact conversation occurred in 2008, during my Junior Year of high school, and it was extremely disheartening. This issue was exacerbated by the fact that my parents’ joint annual income fell right above qualifying for Federal
