<p>Hi,
I have just received 4 blue business sized envelopes from a coach at Yale, telling me to send my teacher recommendations and secondary school report in them. It is to denote that I am a recruited athlete. Anyone heard of such envelopes? or have received em?</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>lucky - wish I were a recruited athlete.</p>
<p>I've heard of purple envelopes at Amherst, I think. good luck</p>
<p>Are the any other people who have received such envelopes?</p>
<p>actually, I received blue envelopes on my OV to Yale, for the same purpose, although I do not understand why these envelopes are necessary, since the coaches put together their lists of supported athletes anyway. What sport are you being recruited for?</p>
<p>track n field</p>
<p>Yes my d received blue envelopes and she is a recruited athelte...</p>
<p>Although she is recruited her sport does not bring in the money. Therefore, she had to have at lease a 30 ACT. She also took AP (two he junior year and two he senior year) classes, she in all honors, and had a 3.7 unweighted and the coach still didn't like seeing a few B's.......</p>
<p>wat sport?</p>
<p>she was being recruited for golf</p>
<p>I have also found it to be true for a swimmer in our school district</p>
<p>....Many of the SEC /ACC school have your names tagged so when admission receives your application they know you are being recruited.</p>
