D1 JuCos can offer full scholarships. If they are fully funded they have 24 to give. Many are not fully funded. D2 JuCos can offer only books, tuition & fees. Not sure on max # of scholarships but many D2s are also not fully funded. D3 JuCos offer no athletic scholarships. California JuCos also offer no athletic scholarships. Not sure about Northwest but I suspect they don’t offer athletic scholarships either. Many D1 & D2 JuCos have on campus housing. The level of play varies more by region of the country than by division of JuCo. In Texas there are D1 & D3 JuCos. In Oklahoma there are D1 & D2 JuCos. All 3 levels often don’t exist in the same state. Texas D1 JuCos can beat anyone, including solid 4 year D1 schools. Contrary to many opinions I see on this board, JuCos in Texas aren’t populated with kids that don’t have good enough grades to go to 4 year state schools. In Texas it’s an issue of supply and demand. There are more good players in Texas than there are roster spots at 4 year schools in Texas. As a result many players in Texas that have good grades and are good enough to play anywhere make a first stop at a JuCo. In Oklahoma the D2 JuCos are every bit as good as the D1 JuCos and a some of the D2s have much better facilities. You can’t paint JuCo Baseball with a broad brush. The regional differences are huge but they mostly mirror 4 year school regional differences. The majority of the better programs are in warm weather states. I was talking to a Tampa Rays scout recently and he told me that he advises every kid in Texas that isn’t draft ready to go JuCo so they will play as FR & SOPHS instead of sitting on the bench at a 4 year school. IMO JuCo is the perfect bridge from HS to a 4 year school for MOST HS baseball players.
