[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, did your daughter pursue any Ivy's? I hear that they don't offer much of a scholarship but if the school wants the player, they'll help with recommendation towards admission. What's your experience with offers from any of them?[/quote]

She had three Iveys that were pursuing her.  They we really not in consideration due to how slow their recruitment process is and that if you have a halfway decent family income you will still pay 30-40k per year for tuition.  Girls will commit to the 'application process'. Typically each school will have 6 or 7 open spots available for their soccer players.  You still have to have the grades and for some the SAT/ACT scores.  My DD didn't want to wait around for months and I damn sure didn't want to pay 30-40k.  I have heard numerous kids tuition is way less but most of it is needs based.  You might get certain grants as well.  
We had a visit to one and it was awesome.  The Iveys just march to their own beat.  Its awesome if you can get in and it works for some.  Stating the obvious, that Ivey league degree carries big weight but its not for everyone.  Lots of girls just dont want to wait around.  [/quote]
