[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As of now, my kid's first choice school is one where coaches can provide some support for an athlete, but there is no likely letter, or guaranteed spot.  My understanding is about 50% of supported athletes get admitted.  He has had conversations with the coach, but he's not a senior so support hasn't been promised yet.

His thought is that if he doesn't get in, he'll apply to a number of other schools EA or RA, and try to walk onto a team there.  But now, with the roster limits, he worries that it won't be realistic, that coaches will fill their teams in ED, and won't be able to take someone else on the team.

What sport and what school?  D1 school? It doesn’t sound like a D1 school from your description.  Not all sports list roster spots…football gained 20 spots.

Recruited athletes at D1 schools have a 100% chance of getting accepted…the real recruited ones.

None of the athletic changes impact D3.  It only impacts in certain sports due to formerly D1 athletes now having to settle for D2 or D3.[/quote]
