<p>Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but DIII coaches do recruit athletes, albeit in a much more low-key manner than DI or DII. Usually DIII coaches can request admission “tips” for favored athletes, which are generally granted in the early decision rounds. Also, DIII colleges are not permitted to offer athletic scholarships. </p>
<p>As far as Carleton goes, I’m not sure how much influence coaches have on admissions, but it seems likely that they are allowed to give some input. If you are interested in Carleton athletics, go to this site for more information:
