There are a decent number major junior players that end up going to the CIS (Canadian University Hockey), as there is the existing structure in place to encourage kids to keep up with their schooling while in the CHL (they have a paid education program) -- of course not all choose to, but there is a structure which lots of players have taken advantage of.    Some of those kids are getting into schools like UofT, Waterloo, Western, Queen's -- those are not exactly easy to get into.  Not a Harvard or a BC, but if you are getting into those schools above you are easily going to find some NCAA schools that will accept you academically.     And some are going to Lakehead which is low end academic wise -- but I assume there are a few schools like that in D1 hockey too.

I assume a decent number of those profile type of players that went the CIS route before, could get in somewhere in the NCAA realm now.

But you are correct that some never set themselves up for this route.
