[quote=Anonymous]Schools concerned with boosting their yield will shy away from applicants who didn't visit: http://theivycoach.com/newsletter/the-campus-visit-rankings-and-fantasy-sports/ [i]If an admissions officer feels that if they accept you to their school, you will likely choose not to attend, then your chances for admission are greatly reduced. It only makes sense that you would not be accepted if you’re going to hurt the college’s rankings when they could instead choose to accept a candidate they know is going attend. So if you have 2400 SATs and straight As in the most competitive courses offered at your high school and you’re surprised that you didn’t get accepted to Lehigh University when you were admitted at Brown, chances are that the lack of interest you showed in Lehigh had a whole lot to do with it[/i].[/quote]
