Yes, however in MCPS not as many apply ED so that would be noticed and remembered by a SLAC, for instance. Not noted by a very large university perhaps, but spoils the reputation of a school with SLACs and the area rep. |

Should be between the schools and the family.
Our school states that if you are accepted ED they will only send final transcripts to that one school. They don't want blow back from colleges. |

Chat GPT Answer on how to contact the schools anonymously.
### Step 1: Create an Anonymous Email Account - **Select a Secure Email Provider:** Choose a reputable email provider that prioritizes user privacy and security. Some providers offer features that enhance anonymity, such as not requiring personal information during the signup process. - **Create a New Email Address:** When creating your email address, don't use any part of your name or information that can be traced back to you. Choose a generic combination of letters and numbers. ### Step 2: Draft Your Email - **Be Concise and Professional:** Clearly state your concern without unnecessary details. Focus on the fact that you're reporting a potential breach of the ED agreement, which is a serious matter in college admissions ethics. - **Avoid Personal Details:** Do not include any information about yourself. The focus should be solely on the issue at hand. - **Provide Specifics:** Without revealing your identity, give enough detail about the situation to be credible. Mention the university the student was accepted to under ED and the fact that they are not withdrawing other applications. Avoid speculative language and stick to the facts. ### Step 3: Send the Email - **Find the Admissions Office Email Address:** Look up the official email address of the admissions office of the university in question. This information is typically available on the university's website. - **Use BCC if Sending to Multiple Addresses:** If you're informing more than one institution (e.g., other universities where the student has applied), use the BCC field to keep the recipients' addresses hidden from each other. - **Send the Email:** Once you've reviewed your email for clarity and anonymity, send it to the appropriate admissions office(s). ### Considerations - **Impact and Ethics:** Consider the potential impact of your action on the student and their future. An anonymous tip can have serious consequences, so ensure your motivations are ethical and the issue is significant enough to warrant reporting. - **Evidence:** You might not be able to provide concrete evidence, but the admissions office may take note and review the student's commitment more closely. - **Follow-Up:** As an anonymous reporter, you won't be able to follow up or know the outcome of your report. The admissions office will handle the matter internally and confidentially. ### Example Email Template ``` Subject: Concern Regarding Early Decision Agreement Compliance Dear Admissions Office, I wish to bring to your attention a matter concerning an applicant who has been accepted to your institution under the Early Decision agreement. It has come to my understanding that this individual has not withdrawn their applications from other universities, which is in violation of the Early Decision commitment. While I prefer to remain anonymous to avoid any potential repercussions, I believe it is important for the integrity of the admissions process that this issue is reviewed. The applicant in question was accepted under the Early Decision program for the upcoming academic year. I trust that your institution will handle this matter with the appropriate discretion and thoroughness it requires. Sincerely, A Concerned Observer |

Lazy ignorant conclusion. We read, understood and signed the ED agreement. DS accepted his ED1 offer. |

I would do the above in a heartbeat if I had reason to believe that a student was violating their ED agreement. |

Focus on your own child . Schools take things like this into account when they make their admission decisions.
Try to get a more healthy mindset. Your child will find a place. Chill. |

The ED agreement is 2 sentences. Maybe you could have read and understood it in the time you took to come here with your misunderstandings? |

| Just let karma do its job. This kid will probably get stood up at the altar in 10 years. Their fiancé will decide they want to hold out for better ($$$) offers. |

Yes, because someone who violated ED for anything other than proven financial reasons does cause blowback on the school and future years of applicants. An unethical person is screwing the next 5+ years of kids from their HS |

But there is no violation yet OP is speculating like earlier poster said there is no deadline or specific date give by the ED school, and the student has chosen to decide to go to EA school. It is not the NPC is exact financial package that the school give you so family may be waiting financial package. |

Maybe you could have posted it instead of criticizing other posters and seething at this kid, OP? We’re not the ones suffering here, you are. So much so you’re itching to tell on them and can’t abide that people aren’t being taking your side! Really, you’re becoming quite amusing 
Go ahead and out this family. Tell us how that goes. |
