Back in the day, Franklin & Marshall and Tufts started the whole thing.

Hard to know who does it still. A lot of people just use it to explain why their kid wasn’t admitted when they actually don’t understand where their DC stands among the competition.

Or almost all. Not MIT, Cal Tech or Stanford. Those three are sui generis.

Yes, but they were very up-front about it.

I don't think they need to. Can you link to your source? It better not be that some kid with a 4.0 got denied one time.

Is "yield protect" different than "demonstrated interest"?
