[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid (recent graduate) absolutely loved their time there.  From what I could tell, it could be a grind if that's what you want but there were plenty people and groups that were welcoming and friendly if you wanted to find them.  My kid also felt like they in fact had others that took their studies seriously unlike HS and they liked that, ie going to class and studying actually mattered.  My kid was also a recruited athlete so definitely had a friend group that was super social.  All in all it was a great fit for my kid and they loved their time there.[/quote]

Not OP but following, have a potential athlete but his scores are not near the 25th percentile. Does JH make any concessions on scores with athletes? Some schools do and some do not. Not sure where JH lies. This is anonymous so my hope is you can be honest about your student's experience since no one know who you are. Maybe they hold your feet to the fire on scores, maybe they do not. [/quote]

Only for lacrosse, the D3 sports are held to high standards.[/quote]
I know a D3 admitted test optional last year.  (family member of mine).  He had decent grades from a fairly grade inflated public but a crummy SAT.  [/quote]

Do you mind sharing the sport? My student is track. [/quote]
