Gymnastics is a sport that requires skill and a dedication to perfecting a highly competitive talent. Whether it’s a routine on the floor or on the parallel bars, gymnasts that can impress scouts and coaches also need to impress scholarship donors. The NCAA limits the amount of gymnastics scholarships awarded to schools, making this coveted scholarship very selective. In addition to talent, gymnasts also need to maintain a minimum GPA in order to compete on a school’s team. Another way to find college funding is through gymnastics scholarships from local or private teams and organizations. Talk with your coach about options to meet with recruiters and scouts, and be sure to check out our directory of gymnastics scholarships to find even more ways to earn free money for college.
