Scholarships by Sport: Bowling

Bowling:
Bowling is very competitive sport, and many DII and DIII programs compete at the same level as their DI counterparts. If you are a high school bowler, you may be able to use your talents to pay for parts of college. However, It should be known that college coaches have only a limited opportunity to grant scholarships, and are inclined to divide these limited resources amongst the majority of players.

Receiving a bowling scholarship is a different process from those that accompany many other NCAA sports because of the limited scholarships available. (Please refer to our scholarship article for information on approaching the scholarship obtainment process).

The Scholarship Break Down:
-There are 29 DI and 15 DII colleges that offer women's bowling scholarships.

-The NCAA allows DI and DII women's bowling program 5 scholarships each for distribution.

-There are over 180 club teams currently in operation at NCAA member schools and most are anticipated to change to NCAA status over the next few years.
