About

For many high school juniors, the college search and application process is deeply intertwined with an interest in playing a particular sport. For some applicants, that focus may be on an NCAA Division 1 program, where there could be opportunities to recruited and to receive a scholarship. Others may have their sights set on being a scholar-athlete playing at an institution designated as Division 2 or Division 3. For still others, it’s having access to intramural sports that is of appeal. In an encore episode from the first season of Admissions Beat, host Lee Coffin provides students and parents with advice on how to navigate a range of scenarios for would-be collegiate student athletes. He also explains how those aspirations are taken into account in the admissions process. He’s joined by Peter Roby, who has served as the interim director of athletics at Dartmouth, the director of athletics at Northeastern, and the men’s basketball coach at Harvard.
