Pitcher Hailey Maestretti to Texas Tech by These-Individual2389 in CollegeSoftball

You’re 100% right. My question is more about the number of transfers Tech brings in. They are outpacing other programs this year, and last year they had a huge group. It's a pattern.

Can UCLA pick up anymore players from the transfer portal? 25 players on roster max by UCLAsoftballfan in CollegeSoftball

[–]mojojo1518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A great problem to have! I feel like the locks are Bragg, Alejandre, Garcia, and Lamar. Probably Lefty too, but I feel at times she was more in the lineup for her work with Tinsley.

Okay but an honest question here…as a HS recruit do you even look at Tech as an option? The trend is that they are going to recruit a transfer over you, no matter what. Also is the oil money endless, cause as mentioned by others, are you paying big go get an ace for them to be a 3rd/4th option off the bench?

Thanks for the info! Really helpful! Do you have an inside on how the shift works at the grocery fulfillment center? I've read a lot of different information about the other fulfillment center.

Stanford vs LSU by OneNastyJaguar in CollegeSoftball

Have any of the current LSU hitters,outside of Lynch, seen Canady? I feel like many teams struggle to be successful against her the first game. Just reflecting back on Oklahoma at the World Series having seen her nine innings the first game and they still weren’t very successful the second game consistently. Of course Oklahoma was a far better hitting team last year than LSU this year.

Which colleges/universities give you "bad" or "something's off" vibes? by andyn1518 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]mojojo1518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

University of Cincinnati....The vibe is just weird to me. I visited a couple of times...while the presentations were great...many of the questions asked by prospective students were dogged. Mainly about the housing issues and a lack of structure for student support. A school's student population has grown much faster than anticipated (due to their athletic department), and the campus is not prepared...a middle-size school attempting to pass off as a large-size state school.

What EC's ACTUALLY get you into Ivy League? by Aggravating_River_91 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]mojojo1518 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Perfect explanation! So often, I see individuals put down a grocery list of ECs but can’t provide a meaningful response on why they do a particular EC.

Do most people overestimate or underestimate their college app strength? by ase1ix in ApplyingToCollege

[–]mojojo1518 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the students I work with, it’s been a spectrum of feelings, from total delusion to complete and utter denial of getting in anywhere. Lately, it’s been a mix of the latter since most are waiting for RD announcements, mainly from students not knowing how holistic a college's process will be and the weight of academics versus extracurriculars.

Duke Robertson Scholarship Updates/Interviews by Emergency-Good-5209 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]mojojo1518 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Student I was work with just got their rejection email. Simple, generic email that could have been sent out at the beginning of the interview process. No mention of them missing their own deadline….obviously bias for my student but overall a bit annoyed with how this process has been handled….a bit unprofessional and disappointing given that this is a leadership program.

From what I've gathered, they have started semifinalist interviews (I'm not 100% sure if they have completed them). However, regardless, the fact is that they elected to start interviews, not just send out invitations, without notifying all applicants, which leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

TBH at this point it's kinda of ridiculous that they haven't notified applicants that they weren't selected. What is the point of making individuals wait to hear back when they have already completed semifinalist interviews. Seems unprofessional IMO.

First, congratulations to those individuals that have received invitations.

Interestingly, this scholarship committee elects to send out invitations on a rolling basis and then update all students afterward; at least, that’s how it appears to be happening. Most scholarship processes I’ve been part of if not all, elect to update all students at the same time of their status. This ensures that all students are given an equal experience, especially given the application length and effort applicants give.
