[quote=Anonymous]No clue if they are truly holistic (as my kid was at the 75-80%+ for SAT and GPA so it's hard to tell).  But I tend to believe they are.  My own kid did a video for one of the supplemental essays---figured showcasing her love of dance would be much more interesting to an AO than reading yet another essay.  
My kid got in EA (or RD can't recall if they have EA).

My kid's acceptance letter had 2 sentences about the Dance video.  So I'm inclined to believe they do care about the entire package.  UR is truly a school where majority of kids take a minor, 2 minor, 2 major, etc simply because the kids love the things they are studying.  The Cluster system makes it easy to do that as well.  My kid loves that they can take dance classes (humanities) and 2 psychology courses (or some other social science) and that is all they need outside of their major except a freshman writing course.  Much more exciting to learn a bit of dance history and write about that than studying the Revolutionary war yet again. [/quote]
