[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - We have 2 Ivy early choices and one is ED and one SCEA (not Princeton or Harvard unfortunately as I did hear those have the biggest boost).

Child is good enough to be recruited at schools that aren't an academic match. The Ivy's have upped their sports level so just isn't quite there. Top academic d 3 indicated child could walk on if they get in but no coach support for app process - child is debating going for Ivy and doing the sport club in college or walk on at D3...not sure if high academic d3 will be a harder admit or legacy at Ivy is a harder admit but we want to choose correctly for early.[/quote]

My kid was similar.  Applied ED as legacy to an Ivy, was admitted, and went on to be captain of nationally competitive club team there.  Absolutely loved the club experience.  [/quote]

Club can be great. Neighbors kid dropped from high level D1 soccer program down to club because it was overwhelming. Said the play was high level and had a great time though he lost his scholarship.[/quote]
