[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] FYI, the difficulty of earning an athletic scholarship varies WIDELY depending on what sport it is and what kind of college is giving it. If you're going to dig in your heels on this and cause problems within your family, at least do some research and don't go based on your general sense of things.[/quote] I am assuming that OP spent 25K per year on sport, it must be either tennis or golf. It is extremely hard to get a full athletic scholarship on those sports. [/quote] You can blow through that much on any number of sports, if you're traveling a lot to actual competitions. Gymnastics and diving for example. Hockey is expensive. Equestrian, God help you.[/quote] Dance can easily be $15-20K, go to a few national tournaments in the summer and you will get to $25K easily. Figure skating---where the costumes have to be specially sewn so nothing falls off on the ice---a single costume can run you over $1k once it's fitted and sequins sewn on not to mention the skates themselves. Plenty of sports are expensive. [/quote]
