<p>Congratulations! :)</p>
<p>I have a question, if I used to be a good swimmer (ex. placing in state, training at the Olympic Training Center, qualifying for Jr Nationals and the Grand Prix, etc) and had a pretty good chance of getting recruited for a D1 college team, but then got severely injured in a car crash in the middle of junior year, would I still have a good change of getting into Harvard regularly, based on my past? </p>
<p>To elaborate, I still swim, but since I took of so much time for my injury and am still not physically able to train at the level that I used to, I am not as fast as I previously was. Some colleges continue to recruit me, like Kenyon, MIT, and UPenn, but that may be based on my old stats. Would I be able to “walk on” to a team like Harvard’s?</p>
<p>I know that my chances of being recruited are now very slim, but I was just wondering if all the hours and dedication I put into my sport, while maintaining great grades and extracurriculars, would still pull any weight in the admissions process. And I really hope to continue to swim in college. </p>
<p>Thanks for your input
It is really appreciated.</p>
