[quote=Anonymous]I was a college athlete in a non-scholarship sport; here is why I did it and I continue to think it was the best for me - * Was accepted to multiple colleges that I wouldn't have otherwise gotten in to * In my case, we still received many of the fringe benefits of the school being D1, even though we weren't NCAA affiliated (being able to register first, access to trainers, PT, nutritionists, swag, focused study hall time, etc.) * Came into a large university, which was out-of-state, with an immediate group of friends and peers, many of whom I am still close to * Achieved great success and recognition - as a team won 2 national championships - which really boosted my confidence * Had no choice but to learn time management and multi-tasking from Day 1, these skills continue to benefit me 20+ years after graduating * Still do my sport to this day and college participation only enhanced the experience [/quote]
