Why one performance gets different answers

  • Coaches think in conference championships, not divisions. Their budgets, scholarships, and jobs depend on scoring points at that meet, so the same performance can earn a scholarship at one program and a walk-on spot at the next. The Conference-Impact Lens shows how to match your PRs to the conferences where you'd score.
  • Points win championships, so strength in more than one event makes you a much more valuable recruit. Read one big tip for athletes targeting D1.
  • Standards move every year with roster needs. A program that just lost two sprinters recruits sprinters harder.
  • Grades, test scores, budget, location, and citizenship change which programs can say yes, and how much aid is possible.
  • Coaches recruit your trajectory as much as your PR. Meeting a program's standard by the end of the summer after grade 11 puts you in a strong position.

That's why a calculator can only point you in a direction. The real answer is which programs reach out to you.

This calculator uses the same performance levels as our recruiting standards and the Streamline Athletes platform. It considers performances only, not grades, budget, location, or goals, and it isn't a promise of recruitment or scholarship money. Throws are read against the college implement shown under each event; a performance on a lighter high school implement isn't converted here. Hurdles use the college height unless you pick another height.
