Introduction
Wrestling is a great sport to play in high school, but it can also help you get into college. In fact, wrestling scholarships are one of the most common sports scholarships for high school athletes who want to compete at the collegiate level. There are different levels of competition depending on the school's division and rules set by each state's governing athletic association (or conference). However, all wrestling programs require that you maintain a GPA above 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale) in order for your scholarship offer to stay intact throughout your time enrolled at that institution. This means that if your grades drop below 2.0 during any semester while attending college then you may lose eligibility for receiving any financial aid from athletics department officials...and subsequently may have to take out more student loans when paying tuition bills!
Scholarships are available for wrestlers who have the talent and skill to wrestle in college.

There are many scholarship opportunities available for athletes who want to play sports at a higher level of competition than high school, with wrestling scholarships being one of them.
The number of wrestling scholarships offered by each college is determined by the National Collegiate Athletic Association.
The number of wrestling scholarships offered by each college is determined by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The NCAA has a set number of wrestling scholarships that can be awarded to each school based on the number of athletes on its team. A school may not have more than one full-time equivalent scholarship for every 20 members in its team, which includes walk-on wrestlers who practice with the team but do not play in games.
The NCAA sets minimum requirements for what constitutes a "scholarship" for all sports. In order for an athlete to receive financial aid from a college or university, he or she must meet certain academic requirements as well as participate in athletics under rules established by their respective institutions and conferences (if there are no separate rules then they must follow those set forth by their governing bodies).
Division I schools offer a maximum of 9.9 wrestling scholarships per team.
You are not alone in your quest to get a wrestling scholarship. There are thousands of high school wrestlers across the country who compete every year with the hope of getting a college scholarship. This can be a tough process and is often very competitive, but it doesn't mean it isn't possible.
There are two main factors that help determine whether or not you will receive a Division I wrestling scholarship:
Your skill level as an athlete
The number of available scholarships on your team (and at other schools)
Division II schools offer a maximum of 9.6 wrestling scholarships per team.
In Division II, the maximum allowed scholarships is 9.6 per team.
Division II schools offer a maximum of 9.9 wrestling scholarships per team.
Division III schools do not offer any athletic scholarships (except for students with demonstrated financial need).
In Division III, you can't receive an athletic scholarship. However, if you're in need of financial assistance to attend a Division III school that offers the sports program you want to pursue (and most do), there may be other grants and scholarships available. While these won't cover all of the costs associated with college attendance, they can help defray some costs.
For example:
Many schools offer need-based financial aid for students who demonstrate need for assistance in paying for their education.
Some schools also award merit-based scholarships based on student performance and other factors such as GPA or extracurricular activities/community service involvement.
In-state tuition is typically less expensive than out-of-state tuition for public colleges and universities.
For example, a student from the state of Washington who enrolls in the University of Washington will pay around $7,000 per year for tuition whereas an out-of-state student will pay around $30,000 per year. Because many colleges offer discounts to students who live in certain states or even cities (e.g., Boston College), you'll want to make sure that your college offers such incentives as well.
It's also worth noting that many schools offer discounted tuition if you're willing to attend summer school or classes during evenings and weekends.
Take advantage of your high school resources to improve your chances of getting a scholarship to wrestle in college!
As a high school wrestler, you can use your school to prepare for college wrestling.
Make sure you have good grades. Colleges like to see that you are capable of balancing academics and athletics. They want to know that you will be able to balance a rigorous class schedule with the rigors of being a student-athlete in college.
Get involved in extracurricular activities. Colleges consider this as part of their holistic review process when they are making admissions decisions, so it's important that you show universities what type of person they might be getting if they do offer you a scholarship or financial aid package!
Take challenging classes throughout high school such as honors classes or AP courses if possible; being challenged will help prepare (and impress) admissions officers who see these transcripts during the admission process!
