<p>^^^They certainly do. Wesleyan, for instance, has the same number of athletic “tips” as fellow Little Three members, Williams and Amherst:

<p>There are also a number of other threads that deal with questions involving NESCAC recruitment: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1363472-football-recruiting-ivies-nescac-patriot.html?highlight=nescac[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1363472-football-recruiting-ivies-nescac-patriot.html?highlight=nescac</a></p>
<p>The best advice is to contact the coaches for each sport at each school.</p>
<p>Overall, I’d say the biggest difference between Wesleyan and the other SLACs within NESCAC is scale; with 2800 students and nearly 11,000 applicants this year, it is bigger than its nearest Little Three competitor by about a third. What that means, is that it has much more flexibility with which to select a class once all of its athletic slots are used.</p>
