Surgery before Jr. year in D1 college, scholarship and school work

owlswin100+ posts

My cousins son is contemplating surgery after this Soph season at a D1 program and before Fall comes around. However the surgery would be a 6 month full heal process. He is on athletic scholarship. First off, can he get a medical hardship granted after the surgery and it be for his Jr year? Secondly, can he "skip" the Fall semester academically or does that impact his scholarship?

I can try to answer any questions one may have, I am just seeking some info to on before he were to approach the coach later on this season. I understand he cant get a redshirt at this stage in the season.

Any feedback is appreciated.
