Message: [QUOTE="Dokey, post: 3646469, member: 9636"] Ivy League schools do not give athletic scholarships but all students are eligible for financial aid. Competition to get into an Ivy is fierce and being a jock helps separate you from the thousands of other four point gpa applicants. When applying Ivies don't ask if you can afford the school. Only after you are accepted is this checked. Lower income families (under $65,000) might get a complete tuition waiver thanks to these schools endowments, others with higer incomes could see reduced tuition. Girls who played softball with my daughter were recruited successfully by Harvard and Princeton and they came from middle class families. [/QUOTE]
