Getting an A in college is not easy, but there are steps that you can take to set yourself up for success. Remember, just like you have to prepare for an outstanding performance in your sport, you have to prepare for an outstanding performance in the classroom. Put in the time, organize yourself, and ask for help. by @ameraz7

You use these skills in your sport every day—but are you using them in the classroom?

The goal is to recognize what you already do well as an athlete—and intentionally bring those same habits into the classroom.

Your sport is already teaching you how to succeed. Now transfer it.

What skills have you developed that are missing? by @ameraz7

Student-athletes already practice skills every day that can help them succeed in the classroom.

Discipline. Preparation. Time management. Communication. Resilience. Coachability. Accountability.

The key is learning how to take the habits you use to train, compete, improve, and overcome challenges and apply them to how you study, prepare, participate, and respond when school gets hard.

You already know how to be an athlete. Now learn how to bring that same mindset into the classroom. #studentathletes #morethenyoursport #transferableskills e by @ameraz7

Student-athletes develop skills that go far beyond the game.

The challenge isn’t developing the skills—it’s recognizing them, knowing how to talk about them, and learning how to apply them in the classroom, workplace, relationships, and everyday life.

The skills are already there. Learn how to transfer them beyond the game. #studentathletes #morethenyoursport #transferableskills skills by @ameraz7

Talent isn’t the most important factor in your recruitment, your GPA and the courses you take are crucial. It’s also important to know that athletic eligibility standards are not necessarily the same as the college’s admissions standards. It’s important to know the difference. by @ameraz7

Recently, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. My sister and I are both survivors, so facing this for a third time in our family has been difficult. I don’t have all the answers, but I’m doing what I encourage my students to do: leaning on people who love and support me, going to the gym, talking to a therapist, and communicating what I need.

Student-athletes, you can get through the hard stuff too. In fact, you’ve already proven that you can. Keep leaning on your people, keep using your resources, and keep moving forward. by @ameraz7

Using my Instagram account for a new purpose. I’ll be sharing all things related to higher education and athletics. Navigating these two worlds is complicated, and I’m hoping the knowledge I’ve collected along the way will help students and their families continue to pursue their dreams. #studentathletes #highereducation #juco #jucoathletics by @ameraz7
