@SkierGirl49 - Sent you a very lengthy PM, but our experience was similar to MaineMom (except for the blackout period which I didn’t know about!). I think in a nutshell, they can encourage you to apply, help as best they can with the admissions process and advocate on the back-end for you, but ultimately cannot make any guarantees for admittance. A coach at Nobles said it best to our son: “As much as I want you here, even as my top choice, there will be a cross-country coach, a girls basketball coach, a crew coach, etc. that also has a list of kids they want. You could be a candidate for college recruiting in this sport, but there may be kids who are recruitable in two sports. You’ll also be competing against re-classes.” Perhaps it is easier getting into 7th or 9th grade (their biggest admittance years), but he was only one of five kids accepted (not a reclass) for 10th grade and I know at least three (including him) are male athletes based on meeting families at accepted student events (though I truly think it was more his academics than athletics that got him in, tbh ).
