Reply to "Committed, but should we apply to other schools?"

Son went to a non-ivy, HA, D1, mid-major (are they still using that term?)

The coach had son send in copies of his transcripts before the offer (summer between sophomore and junior year), after he took the SATs, and again his senior year for a pre-read. He was a good student, but not a straight A type.

He was required to apply ED. I am thinking the coach probably sent a list of his commits to admissions. (BTW, the requirements for ED are that you don't apply to other schools).

****Not-so-long-ago when you filled out paper applications, the athletes at my other son's school (ACC) had a different color application so admissions could visually slide athletes through the admissions process ****

Saved a ton on the application fees, since others were sending in 8-12 applications. clever
