[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does W&M consider ED2 to be demonstrating interest as strongly as ED1? If you’re doing ED2 they were clearly not your first choice.[/quote]
I don’t know for sure, but I don’t think they’d hold ED2 against someone. They don’t know if the student just needed more time to make up their mind, for example, but even if it is a case of not getting into their first choice ED1 somewhere else, and ED2 app indicates they are *now* the top remaining choice.[/quote]

I think this is right. It’s still binding so it doesn’t count against you in terms of demonstrating interest and increasing yield.  I think though it’s a question of how many spots are available after ED1.  My kid is applying this fall and their CCO was explicitly told by W&M that ED gives a material advantage.  If your senior year grades will be better than your overall GPA then it can be helpful to go ED2 since they will see fall semester grades in that case.  For my DC, fall grades are in line with cumulative GPA so far so ED1 made the most sense. [/quote]
