Sept. 6, 2012 - PRLog -- As a part of its on-going educational efforts, Eligibility Coach is beginning to offer Teleseminars beginning Tuesday, September 11, 2012, at 7 pm EST the A, B, C's of Athletic $cholarship Eligibility will be presented FREE.

The National Collegiate Athletic Association [NCAA] increased its academic standards for the high school class of 2016 to be eligible to receive college athletic scholarships on August 1, 2012. According to Dana O'Neil in her articleEligibility vs academic preparedness on ESPN.com August 8, 2012 if high school student-athletes who received college athletic scholarships in 2009-2010 were required to meet the new standards 15.3 percent of them would not do so. In the sports of football and men's basketball the percentages rise to 35.2 and 43.1 respectfully.

"The ESPN.com academic article series is so timely because so many parents aren't prepared for the effects of the new NCAA initial eligibility legislation. This teleseminar will  explain the difference between admissions and eligibility certification as it teaches parents and coaches the three process that must be completed simultaneously in order to receive an athletic scholarship offer," said Marlynn R. Jones, Esquire, President of Eligibility Coach.

"When it's possible for one-third of high school football players, and almost half of high school men's basketball players to not be eligible for college athletic scholarships, the education efforts for parents has to increase and Eligibility Coach is adding teleseminars to our services in an effort to help do our part in assisting proactive parents in navigating this process," Jones added.
