Meeting a listed standard does not guarantee coach support, admission, or a roster spot. At a school like Connecticut College, recruiting depends on event needs, academic strength, roster balance, timing, and how an athlete compares to the current recruiting class.

The strongest Connecticut College recruits usually combine strong marks with excellent academics, clear communication, and a realistic understanding of how selective NESCAC recruiting works.
