<p>sorry all, been a little to occupied with business to keep up with athletic posts. most information here on the money. I know riverrunner’s d went through same process my d went through for this year. D’s Yale coaches wanted all committed recruits to have application in by September 1. All (5) were to be reviewed for likely letters. My d got hers first week in October as did others. Now coaches will encourage other, non supported individuals to apply but do not have ability ( my understanding) to help in admissions. If someone happens to be really good at another sport, will encourage the applicant to talk to that sport’s coaches to see if they might use one of their slots. But big difference between coach saying I will use one of my picks to support you and simple encouragement to apply and come out for team if admitted.</p>
