[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a child who was hoping to be a recruited athlete. We've come to terms with the fact that this will not be happening. If you had a child in a similar situation, did you do anything differently than originally planned with the college applications? Did you change your target schools? [/quote] Our DD was recruited only at D3 programs which did not fit her academic profile. She is now at an Ivy and was chosen captain of her club team (a good team which consistently qualifies for regionals and nationals and has a couple of ex varsity players on the team). The club team has been the greatest source of social enjoyment in college for our DD. Keep in mind that some club teams can be highly competitive. The team took only 2 of the 40 kids that tried out when our DD was a freshman. [/quote]
