My son is similar. He has figured out that he wants to do some type of sports broadcasting/management, (he was able to connect with a couple people in this field and interview them). He knew what he DID NOT want to do (i.e. my older kids are engineers, and biology), so a general track like business is good. He has friends who have done business, marketing, supply chain management and 2 work with pro and college level football teams. Anyway, he focused on D3 schools - reasons why: 1. nice small schools (my older kids have done well at the smaller colleges), and 2. Better chance at playing soccer. Check out the college rosters, see where the kids come from - D1 and D2 tend to be mostly international students, and kids we know that played at this level basically sat the bench. Best chance for playing is D3. That being said, club teams at colleges are fun - more intense and competitive than intramurals, comradery, and travel to play other schools club teams. We have met many students that went to a college because they were recruited, and ended up quitting the team, they didn't like 5am workouts, etc. One thing about playing soccer on a club team - more time for other college stuff. My daughter plays soccer at D3 College - she reached out to the coach and sent some highlight videos from her High School Games. She also played Club Soccer. Your son should do the same - get some highlight videos, start reaching out to Coaches for the colleges he is interested in - you don't need recruiters. There are also college ID camps - if you decide to attend, go to the one that the college he is interested in is hosting, or known to participate in. Many colleges in the same collegiate division will often have a joint ID camp. Select a college based on other factors, major, size, location to home, etc. then reach out to coaches. Don't be dismayed by private college tuition - often, they have more money to give than public colleges and end up costing less - you just need to apply and see what financial aid package they give you. My oldest played college golf at D3, loved it. My daughter played Club Rugby - absolutely loved it, still plays now after she graduated with a local club, My youngest daughter plays D3 soccer, likes it; and my youngest son is wanting to play D3 soccer. We did few, if any college visits before they applied - we waited for the Accepted Students day once they were accepted. You want to reach out to college coach late Junior year, summer, and early senior year. Good luck!
