WARNING to prospective athletes

It is my understanding that Amherst accepts most of its recruited athletes ED. Usually, the admissions committee has done a pre-read and the ED student-athletes know they meet both the admission hurdles and have athletic support. If you forgo ED for RD, then you have placed yourself with the general admission population and the athletic support dwindles (both because you haven’t committed and because the coach may have found an ED student-athlete to support). It is much harder to gain admittance as an RD student-athlete and until the acceptance letter is in hand, nothing is a sure thing.

Congratulations on your acceptance to MIT.

Go Jeffs!
