    Okay i need some real advice here. So I’m a D3 college junior with sophomore eligibility and looking to leave my current school for various reasons. My goal is to stay D3 but on a much more competitive squad with great culture, but most of those schools are very rigorous academically and i don’t believe i have the grades for them. (3.05 GPA). My PRs are 26:00,14:52,8:45,4:25. I need some school recommendations preferably in the northeast. Does anyone know if schools will lower their academic standard for athletes?

    I don’t have any specific recommendations but I do know that transfer students are very different than high school students when it comes to admissions… schools where you need a 4.0+ out of hs don’t necessarily need a 4.0 if you are a transfer student… I would just reach out to the schools you are interested in and not stress that your grades are not up to par… obviously schools like MIT or Williams may still be out of reach but over 3.0 in college would make you admissible to most colleges, especially if the coach wants you there!
