[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do not choose a college based on which one is or is not slightly harder to get into.  If she has a slot at multiple schools...visit, do your homework and go with the one that is the best match for her and her desired course of study.   None of these kids will be professional athletes......if she is in at several...choose the best fit for her beyond the sport.[/quote]

Hmmm. Some of what you say here makes sense (none will be pro athletes), but I still saw a lot of "not able to buy remorse" this cycle with kids getting rejected in ED1 and sometimes ED2. Yes, go for it if you understand and can tolerate the risk. But if you really want to be done in ED1, then consider accordingly.

And doesn't sound like the kid is in at several. If anything, parents here are suggesting that OP and DC may be overly optimistic based on recent experiences.[/quote]

I thought she had a slot at hamilton and colby.  If she does...she can't go wrong with either and should choose the best fit.

If she does not have a slot but just is on the coaches list of desired recruits...then it is a different situation.[/quote]
