[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone out there have any advice regarding an effective approach to NESCAC schools? Is there any wiggle room on grades, test scores, etc? Thanks. [/quote] It depends on how much they want your kid. NESCAC schools put athletes into “bands” depending on their stats. A Band means the kid has the stats to get in on their own. B Band kids have stats below what the school would normally require but can get in with what is called a “tip” by the coach. And C Band kids need a “slot” from the coach. What grades/scores are in each band depends on the school. Williams’ B Band stats are higher than Hamilton’s, which are higher than Conn’s. The admissions office gives coaches a set number of slots and tips. It may be 1 slot and 4 tips; depends on the school and sport. So if your kid is the No. 1 person on the school’s list, there will be more leeway than if the kid is No. 5. [/quote]
