[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think much weight should be put on athletics in admissions - definitely not as much as it gets. But it's nowhere close to 40%. The Post article says 13-36 percent of students at LACs were varsity athletes. Only some of those were recruited, and many of the recruited athletes would have been admitted anyway. I was officially a varsity athlete at a top LAC, but as a bench-warmer on a minor team. It certainly didn't help my application much, if at all. I knew a few students who were varsity athletes in a sport they didn't even play in high school.[/quote] williams, Amherst over 40%. Bowdoin over 45%. the top SLACs are super high %[/quote]
