How to Get a Men’s Basketball Scholarship

Are you asking yourself any of the the following questions?:

• I’m a freshman, is it too early for me to think about college basketball recruiting?
• I’m a senior, is it too late for me to get a basketball scholarship?
• What do I need to do to get a scholarship to play college basketball?
• How does basketball recruiting for college work?
• When do basketball scouts evaluate players like me?
• How do college recruiting websites work?
• Does basketball have full scholarships?

If you’re asking yourself any of these questions or have any thought of playing college basketball, one of the most important things you can do to help yourself is to evaluate where you are personally in the college basketball recruiting timeline. Your age and experience dictate your action:

• Are you a freshman, sophomore, junior, senior or transfer candidate?
• What time of year is it?
• What level have you played on?
• How much travel experience do you have?
• Do you have a recruiting video?
• Have you been recruited yet?
• To what degree?
