On the questions of soccer and the process, the coach can go to admissions with your transcript and SAT/ACT scores after July 1 before senior year. Admissions will give an early read and tell the coach if you will be admitted. At most NESCACs, the women’s soccer coach gets around three tips as part of this process. If admissions gives the thumbs up and the coach is willing to use one of her tips, she’ll expect you to apply ED1.

What SAT score you’ll need varies by school, with Amherst and Williams being the highest (probably around 1950 unless you have some other racial or geographical diversity points). Colby and Bates will require something above 1800, but if you’re that low, you would need to be exceptionally good.

In general, you have to recruit the coach. In the end, she’ll have lots of players trying for those three tips and other support beyond those tips (for girls who don’t really need the tips, but who could use some protection). These coaches want to know that you want to be on their team and at their school.
