College golf pathway: common questions
Is a college golf scholarship guaranteed?
No. The pathway makes your junior recruitable and your family informed. Offers come from coaches and schools.
Do all US colleges give golf scholarships?
No. NCAA Division III schools do not give athletic aid, and other levels vary by school. The college map and the family guide show where aid is possible and what to verify with each coach. Read Chapter 3
Is FamilyGolf.club part of the NCAA?
No. Family Golf Club is independent. We use public US government data and point you to the official sources for rules.
My junior is still young. Is it too early to start?
The record you build now is what coaches will read later. Start with the family guide and the app, and add the pathway tools when recruiting gets close.
