[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Athletes in top D3s (and Ivies+) do not get an acceptance letter early, but they may get a "likely letter" which is advance notification of admittance. So, they kind of do hear earlier. It's kind of the trade off for applying ED. [/quote] My D3 athlete was heavily recruited by a high academic school. My DH and I had a long conversation with the coach and our first question to him was "have you seen his grades?" Our DS was an A- student and his grades/test scores were not even in the bottom 25% for the school. The coach assured us he had the pull to get him into the school and really wanted DS on the team. My DS sent in his transcript and grades, and as expected, he heard back that he would not gain admittance. This happened in August so he had plenty of time to apply to schools where he would likely be admitted.[/quote]
