If you get a sports scholarship to Ivy League schools, do you still have to get good grades?

Question

if you get a sports scholarship to Harvard or any other Ivy League schools, do you still have to maintain a certain GPA to be enrolled in the school or can u just focus on ur sport and get like a C average?

Answer 1

Ivy leagues are like any other schools were their athletes on scholarships must maintain a certain GPA (generally a 2.0-2.5). While some schools bend the rules or extend more help to struggling athletes, Ivy leagues (schools that aren't really known for sports but rather make the money from tuition) are not so lenient.

So in short, if you are lucky enough to receive an academic scholarship from them, youll have to spend just as much if not more time in the books if you want to stay there
