<p>current students who were recruited varsity athletes - did you get any merit aid for your sport?</p>
<p>Wellesley does not offer any merit aid. I don’t think the majority of DIII schools offer any scholarships for athletics.</p>
<p>penguin - you are correct, DIII doesn’t offer athletic scholarships, but some DIII schools give merit aid for “special interests” and sports can qualify. Are you a varsity athlete or have friends there who said they were not given any merit aid (labeled whatever) because of their sport? Wellesley offers no merit aid of any kind? I wasn’t aware of that.</p>
<p>googled merit aid at Wellesley - peguin quite right - no merit aid.</p>
<p>Yeah they couldn’t. Almost all the students at Wellesley have high stats… they’d have to give it to everyone! Hahah</p>
<p>I might be on a varsity team next year at Wellesley (provided my “possible” changes to an acceptance, haha). That’s just what the coach told me.</p>
