SUMMARY

 

"Ivy Recruiting Strategy for Athletes" by Tom Chandler is a comprehensive guidebook for high school student-athletes seeking admission to Ivy League institutions and other elite academic colleges. The book provides an in-depth look at the college admissions process and the unique recruiting characteristics of Ivy League schools.
 
Chandler acknowledges the importance of academics, noting that while strong transcripts and solid SAT and ACT scores can help open doors, athletic capability is the most important factor in college admissions since gaining a coach’s support virtually assures that coaches’ recruits will be admitted.
 
The 333 page book also delves into the complexities of athletic recruitment beginning with the timeline followed by the nation’s most prestigious colleges. Chandler provides a step-by-step guide for athletes looking to navigate the recruitment process, from building personal relationships with coaches, through getting their feedback leading to official visits, offers and a commitment.
 
From his twenty years of personally working with athletes across the country, Chandler includes over 600 emails from coaches sent to his athletes to provide their insights and opinions supporting the book’s strategy. 
 
Overall, "Ivy Recruiting Strategy for Athletes" is a valuable resource for any high school athlete aspiring to attend any of the country’s most highly selective schools. The book is written to those athletes.  It is well-organized, easy to read, and full of practical advice, specific tactics and detailed strategy.

This is a workbook for the athlete meant for a one-time use over many months.  It should be referred to over and over again and freely dog-eared, highlighted and underlined for easier reference and emphasis.  It is not available digitally as an e-book as it doesn’t lend itself to the most effective way it is meant to be used.  Similarly, hard back adds extra cost for no practical justification.
