professionalismStarting the conversation is your responsibility. Make sure that you give the best impression that you can with your first email-- use correct grammar and be respectful.
Also, try and research the college a little before you send the coach(es) an email. Have a vague idea of what you want to major in and mention the college that would have your major. Example: At the University of Maryland, you would want to study in the School of Public Health. |
this is just a template-- don't use it word for word! put it into your own words. |
