<p>If you are a recruited athlete, will it help you get admitted?</p>
<p>Haha yes it will help you a lot.</p>
<p>Will help only if the coach puts you on his/her "list". Only A small fraction of recruited athletes are endorsed in the end for preferred admission. However even the mostly highly sought athlete will not get preferred admission unless test scores are in the 1800 range and in the top 15% of their HS graduating class.</p>
<p>^So if Sam McGuffie didnt meet those criteria but wanted to go to Princeton, you don't think they'd accept him? (although it is moot since he decided on UMich last summer)</p>
<p>Not Again!!</p>
