<p>Hello! The title pretty much sums up my question...I run cross country and am wondering if it could give me a little bump in admissions if the coach was interested in me. My grades/test scores/ecs are up to par with Rice standards.</p>
<p>Wondering same thing. Does Rice do likely letters for recruited athletes like the Ivy League schools do?</p>
<p>It depends on what times are in cross country. As you know, Rice is a D1 school, so your times would need to be pretty competitive.</p>
<p>Have very competitive times for Div 1 schools. Receiving lots of Div 1 interest/ emails and letters as a high school junior but #1 choice is Rice. With competitive GPA and ACT at middle 50% for Rice- do you know if likely letters are given to qualified recruited athletes at Rice?</p>
<p>If you were not recruited by Rice athletics, then I am not sure why you would receive a likely letter, unless you talked to them about helping you get a push in the application process. Or unless the university itself thought you were a very competitive applicant in general.</p>
