[quote=Anonymous]I have a college son who walked onto a D1 school. Use run riot and tfrrs as reputable sites for figuring out what times are what each school has today. Realize there are fewer men’s track programs than women’s track programs because of title IX and having to balance for large football teams. JMU, for example, doesn’t have a men’s track team, but they have a women’s one. Talk to your high school coach about the real odds about this person running in college. Realize that the times of the school don’t always match up with its academic background or costs for your child. For example, my son could easily run a lot of D3 times, but most of those schools are small and more expensive and the academically rigorous ones give no merit. He was not likely to get a recruitment scholarship for track. so we decided to go with a larger D1 that fit his idea of college better, and was more affordable. (40k/year vs 75/80k) [/quote]
