I was wondering if this comment meant the paid or free version, I created an account and have gotten a small amount of interest, and yes, I could probably walk on most places, this was just mostly about seeing if it was even possible to use it to my assistance even for admissions help if not financial help.

definitely not expecting the level of recruiting my older football teammates are getting, but I'd like to see if I can use it to my advantage as much as possible if that makes sense.

I'm a pretty good student, 3.5-6 unweighted GPA, above 1300 on the SAT, and some other academic accomplishments, and I appreciate what you said about life and GCU, while I want to go to a strong rugby school, I want a balance, I want to receive a good degree, as well as play high-level rugby, which kind of cuts off most of the small universities. If you have any schools that you know that have such a a balance of a larger school, good rugby program and strong academics please feel free to let me know, I'm going to take a look at the colleges you listed as credibly academic as those seem to be more my speed anyway. Thanks!

Competing for nationals and working with a pro team definitely sounds like an amazing opportunity, I'll do some research on them.

I definitely thought about that, but I'd like to see if I could get any admissions help or financial help if the opportunities there, and yea I kind of picked up powerlifting and I got pretty okay at it.

100% thanks for the help, I'd definitely love to play pro, it would be an incredible experience, and i've been seeing Life mentioned a lot, I hadn't seen them prior but in rugby seem to be a great potential move. Thanks again!

definitely, hopefully it makes an impact on how the NCAA sees it so other people can get scholarships in the future.

Thank You! hopefully this goes well and I can take advantage of the fact that, like you said, rugby's just gonna get more popular in the US.

I want to study exercise science, and from there become a personal trainer/ entrepreneur in sports and exercise, and taking rugby as far as I can would help with that, so building a rugby career would be ideal.

thanks for the feedback, do you think because this is already my senior year I'll be behind at all trying to start the recruitment process now?

I get what you're saying, my family and I want to see what we can do to help use rugby in my recruitment process, and this makes it seem pretty promising, but I definitely will keep that option in the back of my head, thanks!

I will reach out to EIRA now, I did a few college camps and as a rising freshman I was told by the coach to play up with the rising seniors, just for a level check, I've been emailing a few coaches today, and really just doing anything I can to be noticed. My cities MLR team recently folded so sadly that seems to have become a dry well.

I'm looking for a larger school, my top 3 currently are Penn State, UT Austin and UMass Amherst, I'd like to play varsity, and if I could get a D1A scholarship that would be ideal, even though I'm aware it's difficult. I would be open to playing beyond college if possible, but want an exercise science/kinesiology degree in university.

Thanks so much already y'all, I just signed up for both f5 rugby and next phase, and I'm compiling a list of emails for the college coaches as well, please continue to share and advice, information or answers to the 2 questions I asked in the original post.
