[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I came across a post on College Confidential that left me curious. A couple of years ago, my DS applied EA to every school possible from his list. He was accepted to all his safeties, but deferred to the RD round at all his targets and reaches. From there he ended up WLed across the board except for 1 rejection (so 7 schools total). This poster had their DC skip the EA application window and apply RD. Their pov was that high stats kids are more likely to be accepted in EA, while others are deferred, and in the deferral process they might not actually be given a true second look, therefore an RD application might be better received when stacked against kids who were already deferred. Thoughts? [/quote] No, always apply EA if available. Show demonstrated interest, organization (you have apps done by early Nov typically), and for many schools they take 80-90%+ from ED and EA.
