[quote=Anonymous]I attended Yale back in the 90s. Every year there would be handful of recruited sophomore student-athletes who no longer played varsity sports. In turn, they would dominate intramurals. (I was a student aide in the intramural athletics department.) These students used athletics as a ticket to admission and then let it go because of the demands. Unlike D1 schools, their financial aid package is need-based and not tied to athletics. You won't believe the number of fellow students who would grumble that Yale gave them a useless admit now being wasted because they were no longer playing the sport.[/quote]
