[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were told schools like Case Western and Tulane often defer EA applicants. Do, we intentionally 'demonstrated interest' by attending info sessions (online and on person when possible), opening all email, etc. My kid also reached out to academic departments with legit questions about curriculum, research, etc. Accepted at both with merit.

THis ^^^

You just need to convince them "you are my #1 choice, not a safety".  It doesn't take much, but if you do that, you will likely get admitted.

Professors and research directors do NOT want to hear from prospective undergraduates, at least at highly selective schools. Prospectives email me and I tell them to contact the admissions department and get back in touch when they've matriculated. The admissions office does not see or track those kinds of communications. Keep your focus on things that can be seen and tracked by admissions.[/quote]

Yes, obviuosly it's done via contacting Admissions, attending online events or in person events.  Simply emailing the AO with some key questions that demonstrates that you have researched the school, are interested and need some more in-depth questions answered shows "demonstrated interest".
