Non-Nescac High Academic D3s that use slots

As others have said, most high academic Div III colleges use a system of coach advocacy that hugely increases an applicant’s chances of admission. However, here are a couple of additional thoughts (which you might already know):

1. Coaches will push their recruited athletes to apply in Early Decision. They don’t want you to apply in Regular Decision, because then you might choose another college, and they wasted their advocacy on you. So don’t expect much advocacy in Regular Decision.

2. The NESCAC is a really unusual conference because the member colleges are all very elite. That’s not true in the conference that the Claremont Colleges play in. Same in the Centennial Conference. The conference that is most like the NESCAC in terms of all members being strong academically and athletically (and Div III) is the University Athletic Association (UAA).
