<p>Do athletes who haven't signed during the early signing period but have the application supported by a coach get admitted prior to others students who applied?</p>
<p>some colleges will send "likely letters" to these recruited athletes a few weeks before decisions are supposed to come out.</p>
<p>We have two different situations being discussed here. Signing periods refers to letter of intent schools, whereas athletic likely letters are (exclusively??) an Ivy League thing. Ivy athletic likely letters go out between Oct.1 and March 15.</p>
<p>All depends on the school. It varies by sport too. You have to ask the coach</p>
