Son has received an awesome offer from his top college choice. We are meeting with the coaches for a Q & A session. Can anyone give me advice on the types of questions we should ask? Any help is appreciated!

Whoo Hooo!!! Fun times!! Congrats!
These were most important to us. I'm sure others will offer more.
1. Academic support. Who, what, when, where, how much?
2. Mandatory "study hall" for freshmen. how often, how long...1 semester or whole year. (Spring he may need it!)
3. Does someone on Staff travel with team to administer tests or monitor papers due, send/transmit classwork, etc., when team is on road trips.
4. Workout and practice schedules. (maybe 5 am running...maybe 10 pm gym time.
5. Conduct expectations, from coaches, from housing, etc.
6. When is Head Coaches contract due for renewal, and for how long?, Asst. Coaches? Will they be there longer than your son's first year? You want them around all 4 years.
* Sign HIPPA & FERPA (so you can have medical & academic info. after he's admitted. Talk to your son about these, not the Coach or school)
Good LUCK & have fun!!
