<p>I'm trying to start a crew team at my school and I've talked to my principal and he mentioned it wouldn't look too great on application... Which I don't think makes any sense.. So just wondering if anyone has done something similar or has any input! Thanks:)</p>
<p>Why WOULDN’T it look good on a college app? Crew is a highly regarded Ivy sport and starting a crew team can’t be BAD. Your principal must have some kind of reason for saying that. I personally don’t have any experience, but crew is meant to be super fun.</p>
<p>Thanks a bunch! I wasn’t sure if I wasn’t totally missing something! It seems like an amazing sport!</p>
<p>that is sick. ivy would love that.</p>
<p>some principals don’t know what they’re talking about. they should be fired.</p>
<p>It would be a really nice achievement. Having said that, your GPA, class rank, and test scores would speak a lot louder than starting a crew team.</p>
<p>Thanks for the positive feedback guys! My principal isn’t exactly the most proactive person in the world, and he isn’t knowledgable about college admissions.</p>
<p>he’s worried it will pull athletes out of other sports</p>
<p>I don’t think so, my school is awful at sports to begin with, he doesn’t care much about sports though.</p>
