[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Been hearing ED acceptance % at top LACs are far inflated due to legacy and athletes. When we toured WASP, two admissions officer said there is no difference applying early or during regular decision round. Checking our school's recent results, most acceptance during ED to these schools were athletes, most unhooked admits were during RD. So if DC actually prefers one of these LACs, then what? Not use an ED anywhere, lose the advantage of an ED and wait until RD to apply? Apply EA somewhere else or at a far reach for the heck of it so it's non-binding? [/quote] If he or she has a clear No. 1, use the ED option. In our case, they did not really love any one place and we never did ED. He didn’t get in to top-15s that he was considering, and who knows whether he would have if ED to one of them. But at every admissions tour we did, we were strongly encouraged to apply ED[/quote]
