We have been there and done that and now have friends who are looking at hanging up the stick because the only schools offering cash are allowing "C" students in so parents are finally wising up and NOT trading down on an education their daughter deserves.
.

What schools are takng "C" students and offering cash?? Name them!

Start in LI's backyard with Post
top schools are taking C students. They use what I call the "dummy card" my daughter was an average B-/C student a few years ago met the minimum requirements for the NCAA. Then had to take what was called a placement test for her school. With all the academic services in place for her in college and the mandatory study hall I'm proud to say my "C" student is now a deans list student so don't give up on a school bc of academics. Sometimes a student needs support services they don't get in high school and there are schools out there willing to take a chance on them.


What about out of state colleges for a C student? Also at what point and who do you inform that your child needs academic help? Thank you ( my childs high school is small and offers very limited resources even with a 504 plan)
when you meet w or talk to a coach be upfront about your academics. My daughter had the 504 and her college did much more for her in her four years there then her high school or elementary school ever did. And yes she was on an athletic scholarship and I will say it wasn't minimal. Don't give up on a dream bc you feel your child academically can't get in. We had an orthopedic tell us years ago that reach schools should not be overlooked and sometimes we need to use our skills to get in and our academics will be secondary. My daughter is heading off to med school next year and would have never gotten into the college she went to initially had it not been for lacrosse.
