Real Recruiting Standards · 2026-27 cycle

What it actually takes to run at Yale
NCAA Division I · Ivy · CT
These aren’t published walk-on standards or estimates. They’re the real marks of the 26 athletes Yale actually signed in its 2025-26 recruiting class — including 4 international signees. The honest answer to “would they recruit me?”
Yale is a 6,818-student private campus in New Haven, CT and competes in the Ivy. Courtney Jaworski leads a staff of 7 covering 4 event groups.
“Median” is the middle signee’s PR; “range” runs from the fastest to the slowest mark in the class. 1500m/Mile and 3000m are converted to 1600m/3200m for comparison. Pulled from verified meet results.
