And, by the way, it's possible to be an engineering major, although difficult, while still playing lacrosse. But the clubs that you listed, along with most other top D1 schools will not allow your daughter to be a pre-med, Kinesiology, nursing, education, etc... major because they require numerous additional hours outside the classroom. So please stop. You truly have no idea what you're talking about. My eldest daughter is in a nursing program. She chose a team at a D3 school over numerous D1 offers because she valued a career over lacrosse-only. You are delusional. So please, keep telling yourself that your girl will be able to get a full ride to UNC, be a doctor, and captain the squad for 4 years. But when you wake up, please bring me a sandwich.

Spot on, unless you are a freak of a player, nursing or engineering at a top lax school usually isn't tolerated. We lived it. It was D2 for us because the coach wasn't accepting of it at the D1 programs we looked at. So she ended up as one of the better players on a weaker team but taking the major she wanted.
