[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw a cople of college announcements coming in already at my kids HS. So far they are only athletic recruits. Does that mean they got their positive decision before writing any essays or filling out a common app? I thought recruited athletes still had to fill out an app and apply ED even with a verbal that the coach was going to support their app.[/quote]

A girl on my DS's HS swim team knew where she was headed by about Feb of junior year, but she was not allowed to reveal the school until much later. She went to an Ivy. Other girls in our HS (current seniors this year) have already announced their commitment to D1 basketball and soccer programs, it was on our school's Instagram page.

Otherwise we learn on our school's "fall signing day" which is in November. Technically that's when they sign a letter of intent, but I've never seen a kid NOT go to the school they indicate on that day. It's after ED deadline in most cases, but before any student would have gotten an ED response. So they know.
