[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Athletics play a HUGE role too. My DS got into 3 top LACs due to his sport. Btw, he had excellent stats ( Val + high SATs), but did not get into the ivy he hoped for. [/quote] Was he recruited by the ivy coach? There is a big gap in the quality of play - for example soccer - between ivy and nescAc.[/quote] Ivy is D1, Nescac is D3. My DS could look at current stats for the school and knew where he would be competitive. He then contacted each school coach, visited when the coach would be there to show interest and then kept in contact. He was a swimmer so he had timed results of his own so he did not require films. He was accepted to 2 Nescacs and 1 SLAC--all regular decision. [/quote]
