USA University track and field programmes provide students with many opportunities to win athletics scholarships. It is important to note that like all college sports, joining a college track and field team requires students to maintain good grades in order to keep their athletic eligibility.
There are three associations available to prospective students who are looking to pursue athletic careers in the USA. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the National Athletic Intercollegiate Association (NAIA) and lastly, the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA). The NCAA is the most sought after and well-known athletic association and consists of three divisions, while the NAIA and NJCAA both have one division each. |

There are an elite group of college athletes that do win full athletics scholarships, but many only receive partial scholarships. Athletes looking to receive financial aid need to understand that multiple partial scholarships added together can make up a full scholarship. Through your athletic ability, academic performance and international student grants, these together can cover all college fees. If you receive a partial, it is important to keep your options open and look for other scholarships that assess your classroom performance and community involvement.
College scholarship standards are based on a tier system. The better your event performances and the stronger your academics, the more funding you will receive. When college coaches assess athletes, their personal best performance is analysed to see the potential number of points they will bring the team over the course of the season. The more points you have in your conference, the more chance the team has of competing at Nationals and the more funding you will receive.
