D has played club since she was 10. Currently HS junior practicing 2 nights/week for CCSL league team and practicing as a swing for NPL team 1 additional night. (That's 3 nights/week) plus 1 to 2 games/weekend since forever.
Kid doesn't want to play in college.
Obviously we all know soccer cuts down on time available to do other things. How does one address that on a college application? D has time for 1 club in addition to the soccer and while she would like to do more, there just arent enough hours in the week. GPA, SAT and the rest are all fine. National Honor Society. It's just the limit on extracurricular activities that stands out.
Any of you with kids that played and are now in college, did you find that to be an adverse issue when applying to the "better" colleges.
Serious question.
