NCAA Archery questions

Athletic Recruits
1

<p>For one of my students:</p>

<p>Junior Olympic eligible; “B” student</p>

<p>I am under the assumption, albeit questionable, that this is not a recruited sport and that any school that is strong in this area picks their team after admissions…</p>

<p>That is, there is no admissions bump for even the strongest of candidates…</p>

<p>If this is not the case, please educate me and post which are the schools which are strongest for archery…</p>

<p>We already have Texas A+M, USC and JMU…student has been talking to coaches at those schools</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Columbia fields a women’s team and has a link to recruiting info on their site. I don’t know if archery recruits are given any sort of admissions bump</p>

<p>I’ll venture to say that as a non-revenue sport you have to recruit yourself and that the in-coming talent has been identified and tracked from your teenage years. As far as an admission bump, yeah it’s probably a nice line item discussion topic, but from the athletic side of that it probably isn’t a deal breaker in determining admissions.</p>

<p>But you never know.</p>
