Yale [?] gets a 5 star!

[Blakeon18]

Did we know this? I see that Yale got a HoopGurlz 5 star...Gatorade POY in Colorado...
Camilla Emsbo...coming in as a frosh this year...6'4"....top 50 player.

She's not ranked as high by the other services. She has a twin sister ranked lower who I think signed with Princeton.

Great get by Yale HC Allison Guth and former recruiting coordinator Melissa D'Amico, before she moved to Wake Forest a month or so. Continue to get players like that and you can possibly make a run at Princeton and Penn.

The WNBA maximum pay is $110,000 the rookie minimum is $38,000. I bet the average Yale grad far exceeds both numbers with respect to pay. I’m surprised more top female BB players don’t go that route.

The average Yale grad with 8-10 years of experience may surpass $110K, but I doubt their new grads do. And most new grads don’t exceed $38K for 4 months.

She'll get a Rhodes Scholarship, come back and graduate from Harvard Law. Then go to Wall Street making millions. Then run for United States Senate.

Big bucks.

Yea, not so much.

Yale grads earn more than most peers, less than other Ivy students
$66,000 (10 years after enrollment, so 6 years after grad - if I'm reading that right)

Two daughters that went to ND. One is in her second year out, and will make almost $70K this year the other graduated in 2011, and she will exceed $130,000. Neither could play basketball for crap, but were very good students. I would assume Yale would be similar in pay.

Probably two reasons right off the top. One) Unless their parent(s) are rich, they don't have $50K per year to go there. There are no scholarships in the Ivy League, kids are on the hook for all tuition and loans. Two) Most top female or male BB players don't have the grades to get into an Ivy League school. There are no exceptions made for athletes, they must meet the standards.

Those are solid income numbers. The chosen major definitely affects the pay.

Yale has a huge endowment and offers academic scholarships. Need is a primary determinant.

One in accounting, the other in marketing.

One) At Yale, over 50% get aid.
Two) Coaches are given some leeway(sp) so kids who would normally not be accepted do get in. This probably does not contradict your point about “standards”.

And that may be true. However, the figures I saw were that "after aid" the cost is around $21K per year which is still expensive for most families. And as you may know, no Ivy League school may offer an athlete a better package than any other Ivy school. We encountered that firsthand when my daughter was choosing between Dartmouth, Harvard, and Columbia. It may only apply to athletes though.

The only leeway that I'm aware of coaches getting is pertaining to overall class size. Because of the competition for acceptance into the overall incoming class, if a coach needs say two recruits to fill their roster, admissions will reserve those two spots in the class for them but the two kids must meet the academic criteria for acceptance. In other words, in 2017 Harvard accepted 2029 incoming freshman students. If these 2 recruits had qualified as # 2040 and #2045, the coach would have gotten them but they must be academically qualified.

Accounting is a solid field. Marketing varies.

Tough choices! Where did she wind up? My son got a graduate degree from Columbia.

Marketing is the one making $130.

If she has only an undergrad degree, that’s doing well.

Among the MBA specialties, I believe that Marketing and Management are the 2 with the lowest starting pay.

I think limiting the data to students on aid skews the pay numbers downward across the board. I’m surprised that Yale ranked 7th among Ivies. I had a lot of info on Brown, as a graduate and alumnus interviewer, and they ranked low. In general, Brown students seemed less focused on money than students at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Penn.

She chose country over city, Dartmouth.

Yes, she only has an undergrad degree. (But it’s an ND degree)

Most would choose Harvard, but not everyone does—which is why I asked. I hope she loved Hanover.

My daughter who graduated UCONN December 2017, started her first job at $80K
