<p>She got recruited for Lacrosse at Penn. Anyone else get likely letters? What percentage of the class is a recruited athlete?</p>
<p>how come she got it if the adcom (apparently) hasnt even read her app?</p>
<p>coaches recruit. she might have sent in only part of her app or she might have directly known the coaches. either way, if ur recruited as an athlete, chances of you getting in are 90%. so she's banked. and you might get a likely letter just out of the blue in the mail. my friend got one when she mailed in her app, and low and behold, she got in. i guess it's just so that u have one less thnig to worry about? not sure...</p>
<p>... so only recruited athletes can get those probability of admission letters?</p>
<p>Thats easy then. I gotta grow upto 7feet 3 , play superb basketball , then I don't have to worry about my grades and SATs.</p>
<p>Woohoooo!</p>

Didn't someone on the likely letter staff call you and tell you to keep it close to the vest?
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......</p>
<p>so ppl can get likely letters even when they apply ED?? can regular applicants get them or only recruited athletes?</p>
<p>i hear that recruited atheletes get them and RD applicants too.
but i dont think theyd send ED kids likely letters if only b/c we're not about to go choosing other schools yet and thats what the letters are sposed to prevent.</p>
