sports scholarships
Tuition for athletes
Sports scholarships are financial awards given to student athletes, covering tuition, room, board, or other college expenses in exchange for participating on a school's athletic team.
Common in American universities, they allow talented athletes to attend schools they might not otherwise afford: She got a full sports scholarship to play basketball at Duke.
The system is controversial—critics argue it exploits athletes who generate revenue for schools while receiving no direct pay.
