getting into college with tennis

[jake1036]

I was wondering can tennis push your application through for college at DIII
DII DI or private schools? Say if someone wanted to get into a DIII or private college with a good business school would someone in the tennis organization be able to push their application through?

Thanks

Obviously, it would depend on how much that school values the tennis program and what you have to offer. Are you saying you don't have the grades or test scores to get in?

I think it depends on your tennis program. Your HS team could be DIII with fantastic score but if theres a kid with DII with fantastic score.......

Idonno if they look at your personal record. I think its school/team record?

Idonno our team is 15-2 and were done for normal matches so it'll be nice to put on my resume that our team has been 15-2 for the past like 3 years.

Not likely. D3 colleges on most part, tennis is not their priority. Are you talking about if your academics are not good enough but if your tennis is so good then would they accept you ?? is that what you are saying ??

Well if your tennis is really great then you would want to go into the highest division possible, but if your tennis is okay, you really want the high test scores to even things out with your chances.
