Produktbeschreibung
College selection is a complex interaction of
numerous factors. This book investigated the
reasons that student-athletes select the United
States Military Academy as their college choice.
Data were collected from freshman students and
analyzed using a repeated measures multiple analysis
of variance (MANOVA) on twenty-three college
selection variables. Post hoc pairwise comparisons
were used to determine the importance of these
selection factors. The results indicated the
important factors for the different groups of
student-athletes in the selection process. For all
groups, excellent teachers were the most important
factor in their college selection. Coaches should
emphasize the quality of teachers, the opportunity
to play at the Division I level, the academics, the
athletic tradition/reputation, the opportunity to
win championships and the campus/campus visit when
recruiting prospective student-athletes. Coaches
should also build positive relationships with the
parents and the student-athletes in the recruiting
process. Coaches can use this information to become
more effective and efficient in the recruitment of
student-athletes.
