[quote=Anonymous]Athletics dominate ADMISSIONS at SLAC's. 40%+ of students are athletes. No these are not D1 atheletes, and they are not on scholarship, but they are at the front of the line for admission. Each coach will have a handful of admits per year - so team sport with a roster of 25 players will get the coach 5 - 6 slots per year. The process is the coach and players connect (either kid wants school or coach sees kid play), summer of junior year you get an academic and FA pre-read from admissions, coach makes 'offer' in early fall, player applies ED, all done by early December. The pre-read is not definitive - more like 'we're likely to admit you'. Offer from coach is verbal - 'if you are admitted I'd love to have you play for us'. [/quote]
