<p>Thats about it! If everything goes the way it should recruiting wise for football I'll hopefully be attending Harvard next year! But as a regular applicant what are my chances for these schools? Thanks guys!</p>

<p>Sadly, you have no chance.</p>

<p>Ha ha. Just kidding.</p>

<p>Ummmm…great scholar, great athlete, great musician, URM, great parents…hey, can you get us tickets for the Harvard/Yale game next year? </p>

<p>lol thanks for the support ! @SouthernHope </p>

4

<p>Interview with Harvard and meeting with the football coaches went fantastic! Pre-read is going to be done next week.</p>

5

<p>Other than Harvard, the rest are matches. Harvard is a reach for everyone, but applying SCEA would have increasedd your chance (Last year Harvard accepted nearly 21% at during and 3.5% during regular)</p>

<p>@TrElite thanks for the input greatly appreciated! </p>

<p>With your scores, in tandem with your scores/grades, you have a strong application. Daughter is in New Haven and I know for a fact, if you are being recruited, it can be an appreciable edge. Kudos-</p>

10

<p>Meant to say, in tandem with being a recruited athlete.</p>

11

<p>@boolaHI thank you very much. If i may ask, by New Haven do you mean Yale? </p>

12

<p>Yup. Also, one of my ex-teammates from college (I played college football) was a former football coach at Yale, so I know, especially with your grades/scores, that they can make a pretty lucid presentation to the admission folks. Let me know, if for some reason, these don’t workout ( although I highly doubt that), you need options.</p>

13

<p>Will do but I hope not lol. Thank you sir. @boolaHI </p>

<p>@tjheguy - Congratulations to you for all you’ve accomplished so far.</p>

<p>Without football, I would be extremely surprised if you did not get into Harvard (top grades, top scores, top ECs, URM status). If the football team wants you, I’d say your odds of acceptance are close to 100%.</p>

<p>I’m not sure how it works with recruited athletes and RD - the worst case is that you will be viewed as a non-recruited athlete, but even then, you will still be in great shape, because you will be at the top of the applicant pool.</p>

<p>Really good chance at Harvard! Football helps. UNC may be tough because youre OOS but really, you’re a competitive applicant for any school. </p>

<p>@bboy219 thanks! If i may ask, what does OOS mean ? Will definitely chance back though!</p>

17

<p>Out of State! Thank you!</p>

18

<p>Oh ok thanks. We’ll see how it rolls out! @bboy219 </p>

19

<p>It helps that you’re African American. I’d say you have a really good chance for all of your schools. Also, your SAT and ACT are quite competitive: they are on the higher end of scores. Good luck to you!</p>

<p>Wow you are a really strong applicant! Harvard is kind of a reach, and the other three schools are matches and even safety for you. A lot of kudos!
