Hi all,
I know there are plenty of posts regarding athletic recruitment to all of the service academies, but I need to ask - How do I know?
Over the summer, the USMA coach for my sport opened up my portal early, allowing me to finish everything effectively. I also received an email from the Athletic Recruitment Officer a while back about finishing my application, so I assumed that maybe I was a recruited athlete. I know that I am not a blue chip, but I expressed a lot of interest in attending WP. In July, the coach said he would keep me updated, and that he is interested in me; however, he said that he wanted me to try and get into the school by myself, because recruitment slots for the sport are slim. He also said that he would contact me in August/September about an official visit in October/November, but that has yet to happen. Yesterday, a couple kids committed to play for the school, and so i sent a polite email to the coach asking about my chances and I also gave him an update on my applications and improvements. I hope that my email was appropriate, but I am FREAKING OUT. SENIOR YEAR IS STRESSFUL.
Thanks for all your help
