[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC was recruited at several top D3 schools. The first question the coaches asked was "do you need money". They were relieved when he said he didn't. Ultimately DC decided he didn't want a SLAC, even a brand name one, and chose to go another school and not do sports. One of the benefits of athletic recruiting at SLACs is attracting male students. Many of these schools would be even more imbalanced without sports. [/quote] Do you need money is a sales pitch. The MSRP the college asks for is fake, it's -10k or -15k for everyone. So the coach's pitch to cost sensitive families is a "because I want you on my team, I can get you xx,xxx in scholarships and grants." It's all a hustle just to get you to matriculate.[/quote]
