Wellesley vs. Bowdoin vs. Amherst [economics major, potential recruited athlete]

Passing a preread is great and I am sure you know that passing a preread does not mean an offer. It allows the coach to have a list of qualified athletes/students and then pull from those based on team needs, fit, interest on where the student ranks the school and potentially financial
need, if school is not need blind. It is common for coaches to have a much bigger number of qualified candidates vs final offers. You are wise to learn more about each school, life as an athlete, coaching style and team dynamics and hopefully you will be able to visit your top
choices. The team will be your social circle - so that should be a main consideration (along side academic fit) plus potential for playing time too. When a school is your top choice for academics and your sport - speak up :slight_smile:
