| Does anyone NOT get admitted through ED0? I can't really imagine them turning those kids down. Rich and willing. |

The most ridiculous admissions scam ever, courtesy of our friends at UChicago. |

| At least two kids denied at our school. Incredible students and full pay. UChicago is never an easy admit. Have heard of at least one athlete admission. |

If a student participate in a summer program at UChicago, they can apply to an early binding round (ED0) and find out before ED/EA apps are due. |

| If more and more colleges adopt this predatory practice, kids will choose summer programs over more meaningful summer opportunities such as internship, research, pt jobs, and passion projects. Truly a shitshow. |

For a student to take advantage of this option, they would have to attend the summer program their junior summer (summer prior to application). Not many juniors have summer opportunities as the PP ^^ suggests (internships and research). |

Denied or deferred? |

Can attend after 9th or 10th. Summer programs range from 3- 9 weeks and include in person and virtual. |

| Kids applying ED0 do not get deferred - it’s straight up yes or no |

| I am not a fan of ED but this takes the cake. |

| One and done in September of senior year sounds really appealing right about now. Of course, this is assuming it is your kid’s first choice. A lot of application stress in our house right now! |

It's a nickname for SSEN where you buy your way in by paying for an extra semester of tuition in advance. https://summer.uchicago.edu/pre-college/admitted-students/ssen/ |
