[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re in a similar boat. DC decided to ED to his (very expensive) top academic choice (D1) school and just try out for the club team.  As soon as he submits his ED application he gets contacted by a coach from a D3 SLAC inviting him to an official visit with a very generous merit scholarship, based on his academic stats, that would essentially bring the cost down to in-state tuition range. Now we’re trying to decide if it’s worth the visit before ED decisions come out and change to RD or wait and see if he gets in ED and let that decide for him, at the risk of the offer from the D3 school getting pulled.

We’re also going through the “broken leg” scenarios, as a PP mentioned. I don’t think there is a wrong answer. And there’s always the transfer portal. [/quote]

If the SLAC really wants your DC, offer to apply RD and request for a Likely Letter. Had similar experience last cycle. DC didn't want to apply ED and applied EA somewhere else. Applied RD and received LL in mid-Feb from a top academic large D3 institution (there are only 2 in that category). [/quote]
