[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my kid's sport, the best academic colleges/universities are BY FAR in division 3. Some Ivys are in division 1, but these schools cannot really compete on that level.[/quote] But these kids aren't going to good academic schools. Think a 4.something GPA student going to a school with an average acceptance GPA of 3.2. To play a sport with no professional prospects.[/quote] Since we're all speculating anyway (woohoo DCUM!), I tend to think that cost is the major driver here. Meaning: this kid got near a full tuition/full ride to attend. Which is hard to turn down. We're not talking about University of Phoenix here, right?[/quote]
