MIT undergraduate admissions experience

[shravas]

Depends on what you mean. MIT is NCAA Division III, which means no scholarships. However, it does field more athletic teams than any other school in the country, and if you were an exceptional athlete in high school it will look good on your application.

Of course, I just meant that academic standards aren't lowered for athletes like they are at other schools. So being good at sports is just like any other extracurricular. But I don't think they have more teams than any other school anymore though, there were a whole bunch of cuts like two years ago.

You're right. MIT is now #2.
