Lets say Larla and Karla got in ED to Selective U. Now Larlo, Marla, and Yarla apply RD to same Selective U.

What are Larlo, Marla and Yarla's chances of being accepted at that Selective U?

Or similar scenario to colleges with an acceptance rate anywhere from 5% to 45%?

This is very high school dependent. There are a handful of boarding schools and NYC private schools where that doesn't matter. But for the other 99.9 percent of high school students, it's definitely an issue. MIT, Princeton, Stanford, etc will never take more than 3-4 students from any school. And, of course, they generally take zero. But if they took two in the early round, I don't think Larlo, Maria, and Yaria have any chance at all.

Last year, 58 students from Montgomery Blair applied to MIT. 11 were accepted and 11 are attending.
