Dartmouth ED is a much more difficult admit than people realize - its high ED rate is deceiving.

Not at our school. 3 in for Dartmouth, following last year's 4. Dartmouth is a much easier admit than peers.

What high school?

West coast private.

I posted the above about the ED acceptances last year. Local DMV school. Not sure why another poster came in with the west coast private answer!

They responded to your comment. Seems pretty obvious why.

Someone asked “Which school?” and another poster (not me) responded (incorrectly) that it was a west coast school. The school in question is a local DMV school, not a west coast one.

What dmv high school has 4 students off to Dartmouth? Name it.

Guessing STA

STA had recent years where it was as high as 5 but last year was 1. One that I know of this year too.

Potomac does not have 3 in at Dartmouth. So they either are guessing or lying.

Holton had 3 that announced on Instagram last year (2025). Was there 1 additional that didn't post?

Sidwell had a couple of admits this round. Not sure exactly how many.

Holton had 3 admits last year and all 3 of them enrolled. Sidwell has 2 ED admits this year, at least.

That was 2024- my older son’s year.

Our private Catholic usually gets a few every year too

Ummm. Impossible. Since they have ED, not REA

How many of the kids at these schools who were admitted RD were deferred in the ED round? Anyone have any anecdotal info? Is it a lost cause?

[Anonymous]

Overall the admit rate after deferrals is about 5%. I don't know anyone who was admitted last year and I know a half dozen high stats kids (including my own) who were deferred from top privates. I think the admits after deferral must be big donors who pony up the development cash or interesting outliers that they use to fill gaps in the class.

Really I just assumed it was like Yale. Four ED then it’s up on Instagram.

Then they didn't take anyone off the waitlist last year but strung along a large cohort until the end of July with repeated emails ("send us another update"). It sucked.

Same at our small private. We sent 4 last year despite graduating class only being 120-ish people.
