[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, congrats to your DD, OP!

NP and parent of rising junior, who is having trouble reconciling this thread and the other current nescac athlete recruit one (bowdoin/midd - hamilton/colby) - the other thread indicates that op’s dc is in midst of pre-reads at nescac colleges, vs this thread implies that nescac’s uniformly advise on prereads on july 1st? Can OP or someone else shed some light? Is this sport specific - or nescac college specific?  [/quote]

Can only comment on swimming. We toured and met with all coaches from NESCAC schools except for Trinity and Conn College. There are more similarities than differences for all of them such as no guarantees (e.g. no likely letter, etc.), no financial aid, etc. Although each coach had a slightly different style of recruiting they can give you hard support or soft support depending on how you would fit with team and the conference. If they cannot support you at all will generally tell you to apply and then be a walk-on. If you are pursuing the college and seem to be good fit for team, I would directly ask the coach how they feel and what level of support they can provide.[/quote]
