It does. Sorry. I thought after I posted that I was a little vague and unclear.Could you clarify what you are asking? Academically you can apply to enter college whenever, you can transfer in credits if the institution accepts them and depending upon what they accept you could be academically a sophomore, junior, etc. even though its your "first" year in college.
Athletically, you have 5 years to complete 4 years of competition with the clock starting the first year you enroll in classes at a collegiate institution. Does that answer your question?
You could but it would be unusual. For example, where would you train in the meanwhile? Now, if you are talking about a high schooler who is taking college courses and therefore enters college as a technical sophomore, Each college handles that differently but there are a lot of gymnasts who are in this situationIt does. Sorry. I thought after I posted that I was a little vague and unclear.
In short, if you want to be considered to compete at college level you need to do so your freshman year of college.
You can’t delay until sophomore or junior to be considered. Correct?
Lol, still not quite clear. Can you distinguish are you talking about academically sophomore/junior or athletically? It is rare, but I have seen girls that are academically a freshman in college, yes they graduated high school and enrolled at college, and compete at L10 in the hopes of possibly getting onto a college team. As mentioned, it would very unique and not normal, but it can happen. So in that context, you dont have to start college gymnastics as a freshman.It does. Sorry.

Apologies. Athletically. But it appears that this would be rare by any means and not a usual circumstance.Lol, still not quite clear.

Yes its possible. As I said, I have seen girls that have graduated high school compete at L10. The key component here is entering college. Once you enter college, your eligibility clock starts. So you could imagine college programs might not want someone who only has 3 years of eligibility left.Apologies. Athletically. But it appears that this would be rare by any means and not a usual circumstance.
Most enter college gymnastics when they enter college.
Not enter college - then await a year then request to join for whatever reason.
Again it seems like this rare and unlikely but didn’t know if was possible.
Unless you mean, requesting to be a walk on, there wouldn’t be a place for a gymnast that wasn’t recruited ahead of time. You can’t just say “hey can I be on your team?“ And then be on the team. Pretty much all scholarships are gone two years before the actual year they would compete. There are exceptions, however, but it’s rare.Apologies. Athletically.
