The NCAA severely limits the amount of scholarships that each Division I institution may award. Men's soccer programs are limited to 9 full-tuition scholarships, while women's soccer teams are limited to 14 full-tuition scholarships. These are full-ride scholarships, and coaches can distribute them anyway they see fit. Typically, though, between one-third and one-half of all players on a team will receive scholarships. An additional 20 scholarships are available in men's soccer, which can be either partial or full rides. These are often called "stipends" or "honoraries." They are usually given to players who show an ability to lead by example or possess some other special talent necessary for success at the highest levels of the game. In women's soccer, 100 scholarships are awarded, with 10-15 going to out-of-state players. The other 85-90 go to in-state students, with most receiving some form of financial assistance. In addition, there are usually about 5-10 coaching positions open per year, with salaries typically ranging from $20,000-$50,000 depending on experience. There is no official list published by the NCAA that shows how many scholarships you need for different levels of participation in college soccer.
