I wonder if colleges look at the college commitment page of each high school to predict whether a given waitlisted student would accept their offer if made?

Per reddit, they are exploding offers (expiring next day at 11:59pm).

They're all exploding offers. Just a matter if you have 48 hours, 72 or 96. That's usually the most you ever get.

The Ivies aren’t.

Remember folks, Vanderbilt fills 10% of its class with waitlisted kids so they can say that “their acceptance rate is lower than Yale.”

If they do, and some don’t move at all some years, it starts closer to May 15th.

Heard about a Michigan waitlist offer today to a classmate of my kid.

My kid was holding out until WL decisions came out. They can finally post now.

My belief is that colleges already know the yield of a particular high school to evaluate this.
