Elizabeth asked:


I have absolutely no money saved up for college. I’m going into the 9th grade. I want to be a cardiac surgeon. I’m not very athletic, so what can I do for scholarships? I live right outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I want to stay on the east coast and preferably still kind of towards the North. What are some good schools for what field I want to go into?
(I’ve always kind of like the idea of going to school in New York City and living there.)

At MY school, it seems like many of the football players riding on scholarships who are umm…not so bright… or others who have not worked very hard during high school choose athletic training as their major. Based on the people at MY school, it seems as if this would be an easy major. Is it? Or do I have the wrong idea? (In which case, please excuse my ignorance).

Also, how much money would an average athletic trainer make. (Not one for a NFL, NBA, etc team)
By the way, I don’t mean to offend anyone. It has just appeared to me that it is a major my classmates have fallen back on when they don’t know what else to do.

Tha Texan asked:


Ok, so I live in Texas, but these are my 4 main schools. I am deaf with a Cochlear Implant and have a possibility of an athletic scholarship. I’ve heard deaf people who make good grades like I do get automatic scholarships. But I also have a question. If I go to Cal- Berkeley, will I get a scholarship also since I’m deaf and if my athletic scholarship is confirmed?

PS: I’m majoring either Engineering or Business. Not sure yet, though.

Dingo Warrior asked:


They pay kids with scholarships to entertain fans to make money, most of which gets reinvested in the sports programs to make more money.

All the while, they push kids into either athletic majors or sociology or something that requires little coursework. Many of them, like the University of Oklahoma, they are not even in with the rest of the students in their basic general education classes. They have sections of math English, history, and so on of just athletes.

Is this the business model of a serious learning institution or an entertainment company?

RAD REV RES asked:


I want to go to an Ivy League university. I am involved in pleny of extracurricular activites, such as Debate. I am trying to take the most rigorous courses offered, and I always put effort into my work. The only classes I have that require athletic ability are one to two semesters of P.E. (I don’t have any more room on my schedule!) Is what I’m doing enough? What else do I need to do? Also, how can I earn a scholarship?

I was wondering if it takes good test grades, high athletic skills, or whatever to get a scholarship to a school.
