<p>panda, two years ago I asked this question of the Pomona coach, on behalf of my daughter, who is also above the standard for her sport at that school. He said he has zero say in admissions, but would be overjoyed to have her walk on, if she were admitted.</p>
<p>She ended up pursuing other options, so I don’t know how that would have turned out. It’s OK to ask this question of any coach, and you are right to post it here as well, because there may be other families who can tell you how things played out for them at particular schools, and in your sport.</p>
<p>Best wishes!</p>
