We're Re-Verifying Dominican (CA)'s Questionnaire Link
The questionnaire we had on file for Dominican University of California is their track & field form, not softball. Rather than send you to a form that feeds a different school's recruiting database, we're holding the link until it's verified. Everything else on this page — the staff, the conference, the NCAA Division II advice below — is Dominican (CA)'s.
Searches the web for the current Dominican University of California recruiting questionnaire. Open the result on the program's own athletics site — check the school name and mascot on the form before you submit anything.

Before You Fill Out a Division II Questionnaire
D2 recruiting runs on partial scholarships and regional footprints. Coaches have 7.2 scholarship equivalents to split across a whole roster, so they recruit players whose academics, geography, and athletic level all fit — and the questionnaire is where they check all three at once.
Your aid package is a blend — give them the academic inputs
Almost no D2 player is on a full athletic ride. Offers stack partial athletic money with academic scholarships, and your GPA and test scores determine the academic half. A 3.7 GPA can literally make you cheaper to recruit — fill in every academic field.
Geography matters more than at any NCAA level
D2 programs recruit regionally: smaller travel budgets mean staffs scout tournaments within driving distance and trust regional club programs they know. If the school is in your region, say so in the questionnaire's comments field and list the regional events you play — you are a cheaper, likelier evaluation.
D2 contact rules are looser — and rosters fill later
D2 coaches can contact you electronically at any time (and can arrange visits starting June 15 after sophomore year), but most D2 classes fill during junior and senior year — many after D1 boards settle. A questionnaire submitted as a junior or even a senior is still genuinely useful at this level.
Flag your positional versatility
With smaller rosters and fewer scholarships, D2 staffs prize players who can cover two spots. If you genuinely play multiple positions, list both — it can be the difference between fitting a roster need and not.
How to Fill It Out Right
Have your GPA, grad year, positions, verified measurables, video link, and club coach contacts ready before you open Dominican (CA)'s form — then send the staff a short intro email referencing your submission. Our full guide covers what questionnaires ask, how NCAA Division II staffs actually use your answers, and the mistakes that waste the form.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Dominican University of California have a softball recruiting questionnaire?
Yes — Dominican University of California, a NCAA Division II program competing in the PacWest out of San Rafael, CA, takes prospective student-athlete information through an official recruiting questionnaire. We are re-verifying which URL is the current Dominican University of California form, so this page links you to a search of the program's own athletics site rather than risk sending you to another school's form. Submitting the right one puts your grad year, positions, academics, and video in the recruiting database used by head coach Juliana Santos and the coaching staff.
Should I email the Dominican (CA) coaches before or after filling out the questionnaire?
Fill out the questionnaire first, then email. Juliana Santos's staff, like most NCAA Division II programs, can look you up in their system when your email arrives — a message from a player who is already in the database carries more weight, and referencing your submission ("I completed your recruiting questionnaire on [date]") shows you have done your homework.
How long until a Dominican (CA) coach responds after I submit?
Usually you will not get a personal reply to the questionnaire itself — it feeds Dominican (CA)'s recruiting database rather than the coach's inbox. Follow up with a short, personalized email to the staff, and update your questionnaire whenever your grades, measurables, or video change.
