[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do they admit a large percentage through ED? If so, their overall admit rate will be very low. Especially if they don’t charge an application fee and/or require supplemental essays. Not sure what Colby does. [/quote]

No fee or supplemental essay. They exploit the system as much as possible to push their acceptance rate low.

This, my student got lots of solicitations from Colby,[/quote]

[b]Eww, that's really gross. I think less of Colby after reading this.[/quote][/b]

+1.  it's all gamesmanship.  Get as many offers in as you can with promises you can't keep, reject almost all of them + viola! new selectivity numbers?  vile[/quote]

Absolutely disgusting. This who process is just so repulsive and lacking in integrity. I'm dreading it (we are not there yet). [/quote]

Yeah, those repulsive colleges that offer free applications with no extra busy work for your already over-stressed kid.  What scumbags, trying to get kids to apply who otherwise might not because of the cost or extra work.  We see right through their scam of trying to have as many applicants as possible to build the class they want.  And the joke is on them as they haven't even learned USN does not use acceptance rate in their calculation!  [/quote]
