Question
I'm a 17 year old junior at Bluestone High school in Skipwith, Va and I'm wondering how do I go about getting a cheerleading scholarship for college?
This is really difficult to answer. I would take the list of schools i am interested in attending and contact their coaches to see how their scholarship program works. I know some of the elite programs basically recruit with scholarships just like football and basketball, down to mid level squads who might just throw in $1000 a year or something of that nature to everyone on their varsity squad. Some others only give scholarships to in state students for cheerleading. It really varies so much that you would have to ask each individual school.
