Georgetown Prep rolling out college admissions without mentioning that kids are recruits

Yes to the full play legacies who basically bought their way to the school. I know a few of these basillionaires who would get in anywhere because the parents have donated millions and have gone there themselves.

Now, that’s a lie. Not true at all.

Student run college lists do often list recruits and majors. But those run by the school typically give less info. As they should.

They've started announcing their college admissions but conveniently are not designating athletic recruits as such.
Example: today they announced a kid to Columbia and one to JHU. Well, both are athletic recruits.
The regular Joes are going to far different schools.


To be clear and honest, the vast majority of schools don’t publicly announce exactly where each graduate is going to college. That information is found on student run Instagram pages and is often not complete. Some schools, like STA, have neither school nor student run announcements, so no one knows exactly where each graduate matriculates to. Georgetown Prep has always publicly announced where each graduate matriculates to every year, whether on social media or their website. They are actually far more transparent than most schools.

No school posts a list of recruits.

No link to those that state their Stanford recruit is actually a football quarterback.

Who cares whether those students used athletics to enhance their profiles. To get into a top school an applicant needs excellent grades and a hook. Athletics can be that hook.

+2 They all list recruits. Look at the instagrams. NCS, Landon, Sidwell, Visi, Gonzaga, etc. specifically list “Sport” on the photo.

Jackson Reed and Walls also list "recruit" status.

Prep is the one school that is trying to hope we don't notice that every decent college matriculation is a lacrosse or baseball recruit.
