[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe I missed it but I haven’t seen an answer as to if this is a binding offer or if the school can change their mind. It seems really early unless a player is USWNT material. And do schools review apps from an academic perspective before junior year?[/quote]

Seriously????? 
Most girls commit before their JR year. Seriously look at Soccer Wire or Top Drawer or EVERY SINGLE club website in the area. 
YES - schools review academic material and YES the kids have to continue to excel academically and turn in data. 
They are only verbal commits at this stage. Either side and back out but it is rare for the college to back out. 
At most high academic schools the girls can commit early but must have specific SAT or ACT scores.  My kid committed as a Sophomore but had to have a SAT of 1450-1500.  Georgetown, Duke, Wake, UVA, Michigan, William and Mary are just samples of schools requiring academic excellence as well as soccer skills. [/quote]

So how is she doing now? Your DD must have committed years ago before the NCAA rules because NOBODY can commit BEFORE THE END of sophomore year. Would have to be a rising Junior in order to come before those rules. Nobody, no matter how good. It is illegal to give an offer before June 15th. I think less than 14 girls committed two weeks after June 15th but pace picked up after that.

Parents, if any coach contacts you before June 15th at end of Sophmore year, that is a major red flag and you should immediately cross them off your list. Do not mess with NCAA R&R on recruiting. [/quote]

3 years ago -verbally committed March of her sophomore year. [/quote]
