Miley Myers, a 2026 outside hitter, had a big milestone in her college volleyball recruiting process: Her first official visits! In this episode, Miley visited three schools.
She learned quickly that taking a visit when student-athletes aren’t on campus can give you a good sense of the coaching staff but isn’t as helpful to learn what it’s like to be a student-athlete at that school.
“I highly recommend going when school is in session because you get the feel of what it is like to be a college athlete,” she says.
On her third visit she got to have dinner with the team, see them play and even be in the locker room for the postgame talk.
Another tip? “To prepare for college visits you need to have a list of questions written down. It’s going to be really awkward if you don’t have anything prepared to say,” she said.
Miley filmed her college recruiting process with NCSA to give a behind-the-scenes look at how she used NCSA to help her feel confident throughout the process.
