[quote=Anonymous]Forget full scholarships for most sports for most athletes except in football and basketball. In the other sports - lacrosse for example - most of the scholarships except for the very top athletes in each entering class are are partial and low partial at that. On the other hand, athletic ability can make all of the difference in terms of being admitted to top tier schools - may of the, such as in the Ivy League - with first class scholarship benefits. Have your kids use their athletic talents to get into the very best school they can, unless it is very clear that their abilities are so high that they will not only get a full scholarship but are likely to star on a national ranked team - and highly ranked at that. I have a relative who could have had a scholarship on MOST of the top lacrosse teams in the country. He ended up an All-American at a top Ivy League school, and he is now doing great on Wall Street. He made the right choice.[/quote]
