Rewriting the playbook: advising student athletes in the midst of a pandemic

Ryan and Leigh welcomed Katie Andersen to the podcast today to address the growing number of questions faced by athletic recruits.

Katie works with a number of our students at Real College Matters. A former soccer player for Duke University, Katie is a college advisor in southern California whose practice focuses on self-recruitment and overall fit.

     Some of our questions:

• How can athletes Interpret the test-optional policies adopted by so many colleges for the class of 2021 and beyond?
• How do the decisions being made about the fall 2020 football season affect athletes In other sports?
• Which sports are most vulnerable to budget cuts?
• Most Importantly, how can we encourage students to be proactive agents of their own futures when answers are not yet In sight?
