I don't understand this distinction between "accepted" and "invited." Not sure it matters, but I am confused what you're getting at.
first para. answers your question...thereon is kinda a logical follow-on in the discussion...full of conjecture I might add.
it is a simple distinction...many submit applications and some are "accepted" into the University. Some kids are provided an academic scholarship (merit based), and may even be recruited/"invited" to attend the University (honestly don't know if ND does that, however many schools do). At the very least they are invited into a scholarship program.
The operable distinction is, kids who are accepted normally are required to maintain...say a 2.5 (guessing), or they are put on academic probation, and may be kicked out at some point. Kids who receive a merit based scholarship are often required to maintain ...say a 3.3(guessing), or they are not offered the scholarship the following year. This may be the problem for John Doe...and if he can't afford school any other way...it might explain how/why he used a strange situation to make himself a victim.
I noted earlier that I've seriously never known anyone who got a merit based academic scholarship to tank it. It is obviously possible, but those kids seem to be made differently...they have the grades, the test scores...recognition for extracurricular endeavors...they have their shit together. Its not like they are the disorganized/disinterested smart kid.
To me John Doe needing a coach was weird....I noted it...but it is not really the crux of the issue...its just an observation noting weirdness among other weird shit.
I
am saying, this kid's actions seem to show he was indeed in some academic peril...since he sought out the academic coach...
would it be crazy to think he heard about all of this sex business and sought out a ready-made excuse for tanking? Or he legitimately sought help, and all of this happened, and then it occurred to him to use it?
FWIW...the column today in the NY daily news states...
"The student is now demanding a jury trial, injunctive relief from the University of Notre Dame and for
school officials to honor his scholarship while beginning an independent investigation into his accusations."
such an investigation might take...long enough for John Doe to pull grades to save himself maybe?
So whatever happened, I think it is safe to say he had academic issues, and that those likely preclude him from attending Notre Dame w/o mitigating circumstances.
As for the Pimp and her daughter...weird people...fired. Moving on.
