[quote=Anonymous]OP needs to do some research into what it means to be a recruited athlete for college. Recruiting is a completely different pathway to admissions, basically in certain sports at Div I schools the coach can tell the admissions office who to admit. If you're not a recruited athlete, sports are just another extracurricular. If that. I went to an admissions presentation for Stanford, and someone in the audience asked about the role of athletics. Reading between the lines, I thought the admissions officer seemed bitter about the outsize role that varsity coaches had and didn't seem very sympathetic to the place of student-athletes. Hard to say if that opinion gets reflected in the admissions decisions of non-recruited athletes. [/quote]
