<p>I play water polo at a large public high school in Orange County. Though i love water polo, i value my college education higher. The only schools i would go to that have water polo would be: Brown University, CAL, UCD, UCI, UCLA, UCSB, Harvard, Princeton, Santa Clara, Usc, Stanford, USC, CIT, Claremont McKenna, Johns Hopkins, and Mit (in no particular order). Here are my academic stats:
GPA (UW): 3.97
GPA (W): 4.2
Easily Top 10% probably top 5%
SAT: 2210
SAT II's haven't taken
Athletic:
Freshman: MVP (Freshman Team)
Sophmore: Most Improved (Varsity)
Junior: All league 2nd and All CIF 3rd team
I understand my academics aren't neccessailry great (for CC standards), but I make up for them with my extra-curriculars. In sight from people with ACTUAL IVY-LEAGUE Recruiting knowledge (preferebly 1st hand) would be appreciated because that has always been my dream. Sorry for my grammar and spelling mistakes i'm tired.</p>
<p>Academic stats look fine for an ivy recruited athlete You need to see if your athletics are up to it. Any awards? Good tspes to send coaches? You are a junior, right?</p>
<p>i dont think you can</p>
<p>Sorry, didnt see you were 2nd team all league. Check out the team pages and the rosters. They often list high school awards. Also, did any people who were juniors and made 2nd team all league get scholarship offers to major schools?</p>
<p>Ivies use the Academic Index to determine admission standards of athletes. There is an AI calculator on CC. You will have to fudge the SATII numbers since you haven’t taken it yet - you will need to take two subject tests. For now just use your SAT I scores. Search “Academic Index” on this forum; there is a wealth of information so I will not reiterate here. </p>
<p>CALL the coaches of schools you are interested in. Let them know of your interest and ask them if they have any spots left. Offer to send in your transcripts and test scores. Fill out the online recruiting questionairre. If you are a senior, you should take these steps immediately.</p>
<p>yes, i am a junior. And not to sound arrogant but i will most likey (more than 75%) be 1st team both league and CIF next year (I was one of two juniors to get 3rd team Cif). Also, it is possible that i will be be an all-american, albeit 6th 7th 8th or 9th team. And i calculated my AI and it’s is comfortably in the range of all ahletic recruits at the Ivy’s. I don’t have any tapes of my performence though. I appreciate the input.</p>
