[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question is, why doesn't every school offer EA or REA instead of ED? It's a way of showing your preference for a school without getting locked in or forced to forego other opportunities. [/quote] Because it is better for the school's yield to offer ED rather than EA or REA. A better yield means a better USNW ranking.[/quote] Incorrect. USN has not used Yield in their calculations since 2004. https://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/articles/how-us-news-calculated-the-rankings ED does help school protect their yield and predict their enrollments and financial aid budgets.[/quote] It helps not just with predicting financial aid, but it helps to minimize it. It ensures filling a larger portion of the class with students who are less likely to need aid. [/quote]
