Which program did he apply? Does that program limit their numbers? How do they determine admission? What are the prerequisites? How does his application stack up against others who were accepted/denied? Is he entitled to admission to um grad school? Was he denied for being a football player? Was there a breakdown in communication between player/coaches/grad school?
What does he do now?
Educational Leadership. Same as BYU kid. They do, but he was informed beforehand that this upcoming term was not close to being full.
Not going to take the time to try and get answers to all your other questions I apologize, but the basis of their reasoning was that his future goals did not meet the goals of the program. Basically because he wanted to deal with business in his future meant that this program would dictate that he could have no further involvement with the school system is how I took it.
I get there could be more questions to be answered, but the baseline of a good, Montana kid, with a high GPA should get into a program where there are virtually no requirements. Unreal.
If that is the case that is ridiculous. Education component can happen for this guy in the business world. Educational leadership is a pretty broad program I thought. I don’t know if I was Ryder and Hauck I’d be trying to talk to someone over the person that made this decision. It doesn’t make sense. Well it’s not technically too late to try another grad program since he wants to be a Griz. I thought I read he was already in Missoula working out on his own and was figuring it was a done deal. Puts Ryder in a tough position.
