We're Re-Verifying New Jersey City's Questionnaire Link

The questionnaire we had on file for New Jersey City University is their e-sports 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 III advice below — is New Jersey City's.

Searches the web for the current New Jersey City University 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 III Questionnaire

D3 programs award zero athletic scholarships — money comes from academic merit and need-based aid instead. That flips what the questionnaire is for: you are not selling a scholarship-worthy arm, you are showing a coach an admissible student who makes their roster better.

  • Your academic profile IS the money

    Since athletic aid does not exist at D3, your GPA, test scores, and class rank drive the merit aid that makes attending affordable. Treat the academic section as the most important part of the form — at many D3 schools, strong academics also let the coach flag you to admissions.

  • Direct coach contact matters more than the form

    D3 has no NCAA contact restrictions — coaches can talk to you at any age, and staffs are small with no recruiting departments behind them. Fill out the questionnaire so you exist in their system, then email the head coach the same week. At this level, the personal email is the real first contact; the questionnaire is the supporting record.

  • Say why this school, not just this program

    D3 coaches lose recruits to academics, price, and fit far more than to rival programs. Use any open-ended field to name the major, the academic program, or the campus factor that draws you — it tells the coach you are a fit who might actually enroll.

  • Ask about the admissions timeline

    At selective D3 schools, the recruiting decision and the admissions decision are intertwined — coaches often support a limited number of applicants. After submitting, ask the coach how their pre-read process works and when they need your transcript.

How to Fill It Out Right

Have your GPA, grad year, positions, verified measurables, video link, and club coach contacts ready before you open New Jersey City's form — then send the staff a short intro email referencing your submission. Our full guide covers what questionnaires ask, how NCAA Division III staffs actually use your answers, and the mistakes that waste the form.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does New Jersey City University have a softball recruiting questionnaire?

Yes — New Jersey City University, a NCAA Division III program competing in the NJAC out of Jersey City, NJ, takes prospective student-athlete information through an official recruiting questionnaire. We are re-verifying which URL is the current New Jersey City University 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 Ashley Martinez and the coaching staff.

Should I email the New Jersey City coaches before or after filling out the questionnaire?

Fill out the questionnaire first, then email. Ashley Martinez's staff, like most NCAA Division III 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 New Jersey City coach responds after I submit?

Usually you will not get a personal reply to the questionnaire itself — it feeds New Jersey City'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.
