Built for athletes. The numbers a recruit needs and a coach won't volunteer: roster room, the money behind the program, admissions fit, what a family really pays, campus life and safety.

For a recruit, admission runs alongside the coach's support: many schools admit supported athletes inside the middle 50%, but the academic floor is the school's, not the coach's. NCAA eligibility (a 2.3 core GPA for Division I) is a separate bar — see the guides.
