<p>Does MIT have a soccer team. If so, how can I get in contact with the coach and would that improve my chances at all.</p>
<p>The main webpage is here: <a href="http://mitathletics.collegesports.com/sports/m-soccer/mit-m-soccer-body.html%5B/url%5D">http://mitathletics.collegesports.com/sports/m-soccer/mit-m-soccer-body.html</a> and the recruit form is here: <a href="http://web.mit.edu/athletics/www/varsity/recruit-me.html%5B/url%5D">http://web.mit.edu/athletics/www/varsity/recruit-me.html</a></p>
<p>The soccer team's pretty good; the season before last they went to the Elite Eight.</p>
<p>I think the consensus around here is that contacting a coach is a good thing, but it's not going to get you in a la DI schools. :)</p>
<p>So what exactly will that recruiting form do?</p>
<p>He can help you get in. I talked about this in some past threads, so search my previous posts.</p>
<p>Yeah but the actual email. That goes to the coach and then does he write a recommendation or what?</p>
<p>That probably goes to the coach. He may write you a rec if he talks to you. You have to talk to him.</p>
<p>the mit coach doesn't go out doing heavy recruiting...so fill out the form, write an email...call him if you want. i remember i wrote him an email at the beginning of the summer and he didn't get back to me until i had already committed to amherst in september, so be proactive with him</p>
