Colleges and universities that belong to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (better known as the NCAA) typically offer sports at either the Division 1, Division 2, or Division 3 level. Division 1 is the most selective and Division 3 the least … but, even so, there's a big jump between being a good high school athlete and being qualified to play at college on any level, even Div. 3. NCAA rules prohibit athletic scholarships at Division 3 colleges. You'll have to go to Div. 1 or 2 for softball dough (more on that in a minute). But, if you qualify for need-based financial aid or some other form of merit scholarship (e.g., for academics, arts, etc.) then you may indeed receive $$ to attend a Div. 3 school … you just can't get the money specifically for softball. Note, however, that some Div. 3 colleges do tend to "sweeten the pot" for athletic prospects. For instance, let's say your family qualifies for need-based financial aid. Instead of giving you an aid "package" that is mostly loan and some grant (the good stuff that you don't need to pay back), you may find that, as a sought-after softball player, your aid package turns out to be all-or mostly-grant money. If you're an especially strong Div. 3 player, then you might even be a contender at some Div. 1 or 2 institutions, too, where athletic scholarships are permissible. If so, you'll have to register with the NCAA and make sure that your course selection, grades, and standardized test scores meet certain minimal standards. For more information about these standards, as well as most everything you want to know about playing a sport in college, see the NCAA's Guide for the College-Bound Student-Athlete: http://www.ncaastudent.org/NCAA_Guide.pdf
