1st is financial need. Then there are all types of miscellaneous scholarships with flexible qualifications they can use.This has probably been asked before but since Ivy League schools don’t offer athletic scholarships, what kind of financial aid do they give to football players?
Those Ivy offers have to be hard to turn down.

Needs based. Saw a report someplace that Harvard was the best educational buy due to all the money they shell outI think some of the Ivys waive at least tuition if family income is below a certain amount.
A majority of ivy’s are full need financial aid offers, that’s both regular students and athletes. Anyone who has ever filled out a FAFSA knows that the federal government may have a different idea on what “need” is. It’s up to the university (and their endowment) on how much need they want to meet.
My understanding is you are paying close to nothing if you go to an ivy league school as an athlete. They backfill w grants if financial aid isn't achieved. The differentiator is the money schools actually pay to players now via stipend at say Syracuse and UConn vs Cornell.

When my buddy's son chose Army, he did it over Princeton. Princeton could provide a substantial amount of aid/academic scholarship, but not all of it. When Army cut his son after his freshman year, they reached out to Princeton again. The issue at that time was not the aid, but the enrollment deadline. Princeton, at least, has a hard cutoff and even the head football coach doesn't have the power to get the Admissions department to make an exception. So, he ended up at Rice...as a preferred walk-on...with some financial aid.
What a joke? What do they have to offer? That is a joke for those that didn't know it.Looks like he committed to Harvard today.
Going there he might end up as President someday. Could you say the same with SU?What a joke? What do they have to offer? That is a joke for those that didn't know it.
