[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with others above that it should depend on how she feels about the school experience (academics, social vibe, location) and about the team experience (coach, teammates, playing time, time commitment, D1 v D3) and I'd add that she should consider also about how she would be able to [b]balance[/b] academics, social, team at each of the schools in a way that matches her preferences.[/quote]
PP. Good point. From my understanding with D1, you are an athlete first.[/quote]

Yeah but there also this: we know the D1 coach assumes you are an athlete first but do the "big state" teachers agree? Do they care that your kid plays a field sport that travels often and far for an entire semester?

Synergy between the Athletic department expectations and the Professors support for athletes is important.

Another question - is there scholarship money involved? I've heard of so many kids who go to D1 with no scholarship but hate it and then drop off the team.  In that scenario - do they like the D1 school on its own merits?[/quote]
