So on average they'd get 50% of a full ride? (Depending of course on how good they are) [/quote]

No. The highly sought after receive 100% full rides.  Most soccer recruits receive 0 to 25% aid.  Mine got a full ride only senior year after proving worthy and diligent from 3 years of practice and game play.[/quote]

To this point- scholarships are given one year at a time. You aren’t guaranteed all 4 years. [/quote]
Has this changed? 20 years ago I was guaranteed my scholarship for all 4 years assuming I stayed on the team, even if I got injured.[/quote]
The answer to this question depends on the league and school. [b]All Power 5 leagues basically guarantee scholarship dollars for 4 years[/b], as do a few schools outside those leagues that have adopted the P5 rule.

Of course, whether a given athlete in a non-revenue sport like soccer at a D1 gets any money at all will come down to the coach’s assessment of the athlete’s value to the team.  There is no way for an outsider to answer OP’s question. It’s all case- and coach/athlete specific. [/quote]

Not completely true. If the athlete does not qualify based on NCAA rules, they will not receive the scholarship. The ownus is on the student to keep up their end of the commitment.

"If you are injured, depending on the school you attend and whether it happened outside of games or practice, your scholarship can be pulled.
Coaches can decide not to renew your scholarship for the next year. This isn’t a case of the scholarship being “taken away” since they are typically only year-long contracts, but it can still come as a surprise to some student-athletes. Non-renewals can happen for various reasons, including a new coach joining the program, getting into trouble on or off the field, poor performance, etc.
If you are not eligible to compete for any reason—poor academics, not in good standing with the school, etc.—a coach is not likely to keep you on scholarship."
