What is the Esports Recruiting LAN College Fair?
The College Fair allows students to meet college recruiters to learn more about their esports programs.
Students should not miss this opportunity to connect face-to-face with collegiate recruiters at this esports recruiting LAN.
The College Fair is a two-way street, it’s an opportunity for coaches to learn about you and for you to learn about their program.
What to Prepare
Students should prepare a list of questions to ask college recruiters.
We suggest asking about:
Their total tuition
Other academic scholarships or grants
Their esports program goals
Additionally, students should prepare a 30-second elevator pitch to talk about their esports experience and what they are looking for in a college.
It is important for students to attend the College Fair because it is an opportunity to show off your skills and speak about yourself as a recruit.
We hope that you join us at the Catawba Valley esports recruiting LAN this spring!
