[quote=Anonymous]I agree that it is a great school and that its tactics are shady. Has anyone discussed the new, shadow pre-ED round? Top couple kids at some privates are invited to an all-expenses paid week where they are wined and dined, then all are invited to apply very early decision and accepted before the normal ED round. A nice way to lock up top students who then, if rejected, can then ED somewhere else. Some kids love Chicago. Other high stat apply there because they want someplace prestigious that is likely to admit them. Both can be true. My kid attended the all-expenses paid week before this new pre-ED round. The program was weirdly hush hush - there was a website for it, but you had to have the URL, you couldn’t Google it. I find everything around Chicago admissions pretty gross and institutionally self serving in a way that is great for the institution but not great for the greater college admissions environment.
