The other issue is the athlete himself, if he is a star student than I think an Ivy is great, if not and he is relying on the athletic part of his app to get in, there is danger in that. Not only will he be required to participate in athletics, he/she will be competing against kids that have no such obligation, and at some of the Ivies with little grade inflation it can be overwhelming. Columbia and Cornell come to mind. Harvard and Stanford however, well I think the lowest grade is a B- there. Still, graduating from Harvard with a 2.8 isn’t going to look that good.
