[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You pretty much answered your own question "Kid wants school first and sport second" Also if there's any hesitation at all, don't do it - the pre-read etc and offer.[/quote] But the chances that this kid will get into the Ivy are slight, so kid will likely end up at a school they like less, given that they like this one. If the choices were between an Ivy without playing, and say Rice with playing, then that's one thing. But it's between a 5% chance of the Ivy without playing and a close to 100% chance of Rice with playing. [/quote] No this sounds like a kid who could apply to all the Ivy colleges and get one or two offers. Go for it. [/quote]
