Hi everyone! I'm a high school junior and a dedicated volleyball player. I want to continue playing in college. Could you guys suggest some universities that have strong volleyball programs and athletic support for student-athletes?

Hi! It's fantastic that you're passionate about volleyball and want to continue playing in college. There are many universities with strong volleyball programs and robust support for student-athletes. While there are numerous schools to consider, I'll provide a few notable examples across different levels of competition: NCAA Division I, II, and III.

1. NCAA Division I: Stanford University, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and the University of Texas at Austin have consistently high-ranking women's volleyball programs. For men's volleyball, schools like UCLA, Ohio State University, and Brigham Young University (BYU) have excellent programs.

2. NCAA Division II: For women's volleyball, Cal State San Bernardino, Tampa University, and Concordia University-St. Paul are top choices. For men's volleyball, some notable programs include Lewis University, University of Charleston, and Barton College.

3. NCAA Division III: Consider schools like Calvin University, Emory University, and Claremont-Mudd-Scripps Colleges for women's volleyball. For men's volleyball, Springfield College, Stevens Institute of Technology, and SUNY New Paltz have strong programs.

Keep in mind that collegiate athletic programs vary in terms of resources, coaching staff, and competition levels. Additionally, it's crucial to find a school that meets your academic and social needs, as well as your volleyball aspirations. Once you've narrowed down a list of colleges that interest you, consider reaching out to coaches to express your interest, provide them with your athletic and academic profile, and learn more about their programs.

Good luck in your college search and with your volleyball career!
