WA recruits like crazy for most sports. It's not an academic powerhouse like other prep schools. Instead, Worcester attracts potential D1 athletes and offers considerable aid to those kids based on athletic ability. WA also has close ties to NEFC and Stars and recruits those clubs kids or places their international recruits on NEFC and Stars teams when possible. WA coaches do a great job of marketing their players to college programs, especially on the boys side.

Don't know anything about the relationship with stars and NEFC, but a lot of kids do pg years at WA.

When you say WA not an academic powerhouse you might be correct but they still send students to Ivy League and many NESCAC's!

All things considered, all prep schools outperform public and parochial schools in sending students to Ivy and Nescac colleges. I think the op was comparing Worcester to other preps

Given the top level clubs many of the girls play for, I think placement, wrt soccer, is driven more by the clubs they play for, than the school.
