<p>I actually went down to meet with the coach in late August, so it was just my parents, the coach, and myself. I actually think it went very well. He sounded optimistic about my chances, but I certainly wouldn’t expect an accurate admissions gauge from the coach. </p>
<p>Later, he told me that what basically happens is once everyone expresses interest in running, the coaches submit “a list of names to admission, and then admissions decides from there”. That’s pretty vague, and I don’t know any more than that. He said they normally pick up around 15 athletes each year for the track/xc program.</p>
<p>So beyond that I’m a bit unclear. I’m wondering if the list is ranked, most desirable to least desirable. I guess all I can do is sit tight until the 15th.</p>
