[quote=Anonymous]My son is a junior and has committed to a top 10 school. He is one of the top ranked athletes for his graduating year and has a 4.0 uw GPA with rigorous coursework. He had close to 70-80 schools reach out to him, including most of the service academies and ivies. Throughout the summer the coaches discussed not only his athletic performance but also reviewed his academics. He provided transcripts multiple times and once again before going on official visits. Before making his final decision he asked what the admission process looks like but was told each school said they already did an academic preread, and as long as he achieved a specific score on the ACTs/SATs, and his grades didn’t drop, he should be fine. No coach can guarantee admission but they can advocate for your athlete. The coaches are well aware who can make it through the admissions process and will not offer an official visit unless your application is viable. [/quote]
