Making it official

Committing to Otterbein without a signing day

Otterbein competes in Division III, which offers no athletic scholarships and has no signing periods. Your commitment is the admission letter and the roster spot, and the school may hold a non-binding celebratory signing once you are admitted.

Those are the dates Otterbein commits usually post. Use COMMITTED when your coach says it is public; there is nothing to put SIGNED on unless the school holds a ceremony. More on how D3 announcements work on the Division III commitment graphics page.

01

Type the school

Enter Otterbein and OH. The app looks up Otterbein's colors for you, and you can set them yourself if you want a different look.

An action shot with your face visible works best, like a soccer or tennis shot from a game, or a portrait in uniform.

Post it

Two finished graphics come back in about a minute, sized for Instagram, Story and X. Tag Otterbein and the Cardinals and let the program repost it.
