It’s not clear in all of this whether Chicago might not be a better fit for you than Yale, both academically and athletically. The coach really wants you, and there might be less pressure and more attention as a top 3 recruit than someone who squeaks on to Yale’s roster, or who has to fight aggressively to get recruited.
What are you interested in academically? I understand that you spent time at Yale swimming and loved it, but other than that what appeals to you about Yale as an environment?
