[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools value strong soccer programs, if you think that your child can contribute to that, then apply and you may find that you qualify for a healthy financial aid package.[/quote] Totally echo this point. Soccer players tend to be less frat-boyish (yes I'm thinking about laxers) and more bookish (same thought, laxers), so soccer is a solid investment of resources for any school.[/quote] Meh. The really good ones can't even play for the school. Why would you give the slightest bit of "credit" in admissions to an athlete who quite likely can't play for the school, let alone violate the rules to give a hidden athletic scholarship? If they can get in on their own on the academics alone, fine. (But even then they may be taking up a spot of a student who would contribute athletically to the community.) The future of soccer is club. Can't have it both ways and not play HS but want help getting in to HS. It's that simple.[/quote]
