2. Assess the student-athlete's academic competencies and athletic abilities.

3. The student-athlete must verify their eligibility status.

4. Determine what entrance exam the student-athlete needs to write.

5. Create a list of universities that caters to the student-athlete's needs.

6. Create a profile to distribute to targeted coaches.

7. Follow-up with coaches. The student-athlete has a responsibility to initiate contact with the coaches.
