[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d assume it’s to increase apps and get apps from very strong students so they can take steps to recruit them. I know UVA has said that their EA pool is the strongest, because that’s where kids who are also applying to HYPSM apply, and I would expect the same will be true at Wash U. [/quote] The big difference is that unlike applying SCEA/REA at HYP, you can also apply to a public school EA. Here, you won't be able to apply both to HYP and WashU EA. I don't know what the strategy is. I am guessing since UChicago USC and some other privates offer both ED and EA they think it will be a good thing to do.[/quote] Good point. But some of this is also geography, I suspect. How many schools in the Midwest, admitting at least 1000 freshmen, have ED only, with no EA? At this point I think it’s only Northwestern. [/quote]
