[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know they are different, but wondering how much legacy (one parent, not both) or athletic recruit status helps. [/quote] I can only speak to the latter and based on the interactions we've had so far. Not much. There are only so many "slots" available to a coach in a year. And if the athlete doesn't meet the grades they aren't getting a spot. While I acknowledge that that there are maybe a slight allowance for lower grades for the athletes, it's negligible. The coaches at high performing D3s we've talked to stress the grades are important and the higher your grades, the better your chances. I actually know a kid who was being recruited by a high academic D1 until the grades were submitted. They turned that kid down flat, saying there was no chance of being admitted. [/quote]
