[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Senior Parent here. Per DC, there are about 20 (Ivy + Stanford) and another 15-20 in the t25ish group Chicago/Michigan/top SLAcs with some additional info yet to be processed.[/quote]

Do you have the breakdown?[/quote]

I don’t think 20 kids are going to ivy.  More like 15, but some were admitted to multiple ivies. [/quote]

15 is still an excellent number. Well done Sidwell![/quote]

Greater than 15, less than 20 is what my DC told me. Not counting individuals admitted to multiple Ivies. lets say 17.5  :D  [/quote]

Do you know how many of these Ivy/Stanford acceptances were from ED/REA? How many from regular decision?[/quote]

Roughly: 1/3 ED, 2/3 RD[/quote]

NP. Mostly Legacy/Athlete/URM[/quote]

No way. there must be at least a few that aren't in these buckets?[/quote]

Many/most are not in those buckets.[/quote]

Not true. The vast majority are legacy/athlete/urm.[/quote]

I know people in these buckets try to spread the rumor.  Their purpose is to discourage kids with top stats but not in those buckets in the same school with their kids to not apply the very top schools.  The goal is to increase their kids’ chance.[/quote]

Maybe. But facts are facts: This year the vast majority are definitely legacy/athlete/urm. One may not recognize legacy quite as easily -- you don't know the families.[/quote]
