    Please keep in mind: College Head coaches receive thousands of emails; KEEP It Short, link highlight film, copy your HS and/or Club coach (w their permission) - tip 2- email to position or recruiting coach (copy HC, assistant, HS coaches, tip 3 - finish with a question-"if you are interested, what is the next step in your process, to consider me as a future ____?"

    Not sure if my kid is Ivy League material, but your video was very educational. Didn't realize the process was so involved. My kid is just a rising sophomore, but he's gonna get a ton of baseball scholarship offers in a year, so I gotta get him ready for the onslaught of calls and texts and then visit considerations.

    Hey John, great video. Could you talk a bit about how your times progressed throughout high school? I’m currently in 8th grade and my dream is to run at Harvard, and I wanted to know how you progressed throughout your years in high school so I can have an idea of where I need to be year to year. Thanks.

  • @maharshidesai5575
    @maharshidesai5575 7 років тому +22

    Hey John, I'm from Canada too and I'm wondering if there's any way to get recruited to Ivy League schools through a process which isn't athletics. Obviously there's the normal stream, but aside from that can you get a referral from say the debate or chess team of the Ivy League school, or is it only athletics?

  • @0xCUBE

    Hey John, I talked to a Harvard coach (in sailing) and since he only gets 1 recruiting spot, he said he'd still really want me as an asset on the team and would be willing to write me a letter of reference attached to my application. Does it really have sway? The internet seems to say that if you're not fully recruited then the letter is meaningless.

    Hey John I know I am watching this late but I was wondering how does recruiting with d3 schools work? Is it a similar process or slightly different? I know that schools like MIT and Caltech do not give likely letters to athletes and that athlete's find out the same time as everyone else.

    If you didn't get into Harvard, would you still make these videos? How about three years from now?

    • @thejohnfish
      @thejohnfish  7 років тому +38

      +Meast so the reason I can make these specific videos is because I did get in, and a lot of people are curious how. But I think I would still make videos of some kind--i started this channel as an extension to a communication technology course I was taking, I wanted to develop my skills further. I definitely plan on still making videos in three years but three years is a long time to promise anything.

  • @danielshertzer2115
    @danielshertzer2115 Рік тому

    John - Two questions: if a coach does call you back and asks you to stay in touch, how much of an indication is that they they want to recruit you, in other words, are they calling dozens of other people ? Secondly, any idea how low the Ivies go on SATs for athletes ?

    • @thejohnfish
      @thejohnfish  Рік тому

      It's a positive signal for sure but they are definitely calling dozens of people. Strongest indicator is if they ask you to come on a visit.
      Sliding scale on SATs. If you're national champion level, you can probably get away with a 1200? If you're borderline for the team, having a 1500+ will help a huge amount.
