<p>For non-recruits, when are the trials held? Is it during the week of orientation?</p>

<p>Depends on the sport. Ask the coach.</p>

9

<p>Hah I remember my frosh year a hallmate joined crew. Crew had about 50 walk ons to start and 2 to finish</p>

10

<p>One of the T&F people is my roommate wewt</p>

11

<p>How about crew</p>

12

<p>eugenie, what do you mean by '50 walk ons to start and 2 to finish'?? thanks</p>

13

<p>He means that the other 48 weren't cut out for it and were either cut or quit.</p>

14

<p>Im a little confused: does that mean that there were 50 Crew recruits that year??</p>

15

<p>A walk-on is someone who was not recruited who "walks on" to open tryouts.</p>

<p>Many times the walk-ons have relatively limited competitive rowing experience (for crew) and so the failure rate is pretty high. It might be lower for other sports, but crew is notorious for cutting and crushing walk-ons.</p>

16

<p>oh, ok understood. by any chance do you know how many recruit spots there are for Crew?</p>

17

<p>For men's crew it's about 20-25 - half lightweight and half heavyweight. Last year there were about a hundred walk-ons and only 2 or 3 were left by the end of the season. Here are a couple of articles about last year's freshman walk ons and recruits.</p>

18

<p>Hi, surely it must be more than that if there are 2 boats each for Heavyweights and Lightweights? Also, does that mean that nearly all of these potential recruits are admitted? thanks</p>

19

<p>women's water polo:</p>

<p><a href="http://www.goprincetontigers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=10600&ATCLID=576562%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.goprincetontigers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=10600&ATCLID=576562&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>They try to field two boats for heavy and light, but they don't always succeed. There was only one heavyweight 8 boat last year. And no they don't accept all recruits. That's why they depend on walk ons to fill the boats.</p>
