I won't post on Facebook, and I'll let DS call the grandparents, aunts and uncles.
So please just indulge me DCUM as I shout... Wahoo!!! I'm so happy for him. Good luck and best wishes to everyone else! |

Admissions blog numbers
Early Decision Applications Total number of Early Decision applications: 2,159 Total number of VA apps: 1,165 Total number of OOS apps: 994 We use completed applications in our statistics. Early Decision Offers Overall offers: 748 Total VA offers: 466 (40% offer rate) Total OOS offers: 282 (28% offer rate) Enrollment Goal: ~3,750 This means 20% of the class will have come from the Early Decision round. It's misleading to average these offer rates together because residency is a major factor in our review. If you are going to share these numbers, cite BOTH offer rates. Early Decision Defers Overall defers: 570 Total VA defers: 334 Total OOS defers: 236 Deferred students are no long bound by Early Decision agreements. Read more about deferral here (this link is in all defer letters). |
Any VA resident who did not do ED is a fool. |
It doesn't looks like it was much easier? |
Congratulations to your son and your family. All the best in his college career. |
Correct. That 40% is pretty much what in-state gets. |
Thank you! |
What I find interesting is how many student were flat-out denied. If my math is correct... Total number of VA apps: 1,165 Total VA offers: 466 (40% offer rate) Total VA defers: 334 466+334=800 total number who were either accepted now or deferred. 1165-800=365 who were flat out denied. I'd be curious to know about those applications. Was it serious wishful thinking? Could they have been better off doing regular decision? |
+1 Nice! |
| Congrats! |
Probably kinder in the long run. They will be more drive to do a good job on RD apps. Why string people along? Georgetown only defers. Not sure I agree with that. |
| Parent of OOS student who is a junior. Even the OOS students seem to have a big preference with this ED, right? Vis a Vis admissions odds from the regular applications, I mean. |
| can you still apply RD if you get rejected in ED? |
| No. |
