    Time to set your goals!

    We can't explain the importance of setting goals - not just in the college placement program, but in LIFE. “A goal without a plan is just a wish”. – Antoine de Saint-Exupery. We believe in a simple popular formula for goals. Setting SMART Goals is done with the following in mind; SPECIFIC - What do I want to achieve? MEASURABLE - How can I measure the success? ATTAINABLE - Set your goal to be hard to get to, but make sure you can reach the desired outcome RELEVANT - Is the go

    GPA's - what do they tell?

    We know schools use the GPA's to guide their acceptances. But are the GPA's giving a true view of what students are learning? As the recent article in the Washington Post states: "Our reliance on it is reinforced in its use for awarding certain honors (such as cum laude), obtaining and maintaining scholarship status, and hiring for internships or even jobs after graduation." Bucknell University is introducing a new way to look at GPA's with the "The GPA of Medians, or GPAM,

Tournaments tell coaches a lot about you as a player! Coaches travel domestically and inte

In its review, the committee will consult with the Division I Student-Athlete
