Do athletic recruits have to submit their early decision applications as soon as possible or is it okay to apply by the due date? Coach hasn’t said anything about this, but I read on another forum that recruits should get their apps in ASAP.
You can generally do it by the due date, but admissions may not have time to issue a Likely Letter if that is something they do. More often then not, “as soon as possible” is just a feel good thing, to cross it off the list and lock things in for everyone.
If the school has any sort of rolling admissions, timing might affect merit aid as there might be a bit of first come first serve.
