Incoming Freshmen for Fall of 2012

[altazo]

It is hard to figure why a Quebec recruit would give up a full ride to some team like UVM or Harvard (worth $200,000 +-) to play Major Junior in Quebec unless the player plans to attend a Canadian U team after junior hockey.

I was under the impression that Ivies didn't give athletic scholarships. Your point is valid for non-Ivie schools, however.

I have always been under the impression that if a player can not afford to attend a Ivy or NESCAC team because of family income the financial aid package takes care of the tab.

For sure. However there is more to getting into an Ivie or NESCAC school than being good at hockey.

I think Amherst has an admissions policy where any admitted applicant can attend regardless of their ability to pay.

That's "need blind" admissions, which applies at all NESCACs with some variations (some don't apply it to international, transfer, and wait list admittees).

I think it was Amherst that has the most expensive tuition, but in turn gives the most F.A..

Negative. In fact there are at least 3 colleges listed in their own conference that are more expensive.

I believe Major Junior teams often recruit many more players than can make the final roster and if they play a few exhabition games or real games they lose there chance to play NCAA hockey.
