Introduction-Ionce had a client from the North East from a good family (Dad was a professional, Mom was an entrepreneur). He was a very strong student with credentials that included a GPA above 4.0 with AP classes, a SAT north of 1500 and strong leadership and hundreds of hours of community service. He was also a good golfer and hoped that golf would be the tipping point for an Ivy League education. After an evaluation, which included the day together and a round of golf, I thought it would be a stretch for him to attend the Ivy League; there are eight schools with two spots each. In my opinion, golf was not going to attract a coach at the Ivy League but his game would be very appealing at Williams, Emory, Notre Dame or Lehigh. After calling and speaking to the coaches, they confirmed they would be interested in offering the young man a spot on the golf team, a great education and guaranteed admissions before the start of his Senior year. As an advisor, would you suggest the student accept this deal?
