[quote=Anonymous]ED, EA, SCEA, REA, etc. benefit the schools and the students who have clear preferences. My DC knew exactly where she wanted to go and submitting one application and knowing in mid-December was a huge stress/suspense reliever. Schools benefit because they can have their athletes committed and separate out legacy applicants who are only applying because their parents told them to. The downside is that students who need to compare financial aid packages don't have a chance to do that. At the top colleges with the most generous financial aid packages, comparison shopping isn't really necessary. But, for lower tier schools with less generous financial aid, they have to trade easier admission for the guaranteed yield. [/quote]
