College Recruiting Resources

Athletics recruitment can be both exciting and difficult for prospective athletes. Athletes are best supported by the trifecta of parents/guardians, coaches, and college counselors, as working together ensures the best outcome for every athlete. This page contains important information about the college recruitment process. It is important for you to familiarize yourself with it as well as with the recruiting calendar for your particular sport.

Policies and Procedures :

  • If you wish to have an unofficial transcript and/or standardized test scores sent to a coach, please complete the Unofficial Transcript Request form in the College Counseling Office. Please be sure to provide the coach’s email address and contact information.
     
  • Official information cannot be sent to any college until you have completed the Transcript Release Form found in the College Counseling Office. You must complete one form for each individual school.
     
  • If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Dave Page, student-athlete college recruitment coordinator, at dpage@thehill.orgor 484-947-3201

Recruitment Timeline (Third Through Sixth Form Years)

The most important component to the college process is the student. Student-athletes need to be proactive in their search for the right school to continue their academic, athletic, and personal growth. We encourage students to use all available resources. Working together with a support system will allow students to take ownership of their college process. The Athletics and College Counseling Offices have worked together to provide this timeline for recruited student-athletes.

Recruitment Calendars

NCAA member schools have adopted rules to create an equitable recruiting environment that promotes student-athlete well-being. The rules define who may be involved in the recruiting process, when recruiting may occur and the conditions under which recruiting may be conducted. Recruiting rules seek, as much as possible, to control intrusions into the lives of student-athletes.
