<p>Does anyone know if contacting the cross country/track coach will help me get accepted? or should I just leave this till I get accepted?</p>
<p>it couldnt hurt!</p>
<p>Yes, I believe it helps quite a bit.</p>
<p>I'm a track recruit.</p>
<p>Coach Hall is a great guy! Shoot him an email showing your interest, contact information, and of course, times (I'm assuming you're a distance or mid-distance guy).</p>
<p>It won't help you get accepted but it is still good to contact him.</p>
<p>It will however, help you get accepted into my heart</p>
<p>S was a track and cross country recruit and was admitted EA. He was very impressed with Coach Hall and all the communications from the athletic department. I would contact Coach Hall ASAP. He does have the ability to support your application. S was admitted to Penn ED, so won't be going to Chicago. Chicago was high on his list.</p>
<p>ok awesome thank you all. I sent him and email and he sent one back asking for all my stuff but I have yet to hear anything more.</p>
