The Gold Package provides unrestricted, comprehensive individualized support from the Director of the College PREP Program. After the athlete completes a “How to Choose the Right College” form, the college advisory meetings will be designed to meet the particular needs, desires, and goals of the athlete and their family. Examples of topics that may be covered include selecting the right type of college, determining the appropriate soccer level, career interests, degree choices, importance of academics, recruitment timelines, resume building, preparing for a college visit, etc. Athletes (and parents) can contact the Director of PREP Program any time with questions related to the recruitment process and choosing the right college. The Director of PREP Program will also review written communication from the athlete to college coaches to ensure the appropriateness of the emails. Furthermore, the Director of PREP Program will help to prepare and coach the athlete on what to say to college coaches during phone calls and on college visits. In preparing for such conversations, the Director of PREP Program will help the athlete develop a list of appropriate questions to ask the college coach, including access to the “College Visit” form, and ensure the player understands the importance of non-verbal communication and attitude. Finally, the Director of the College PREP Program will personally reach out and communicate with any college coaches on behalf of the athlete as needed/requested.
