[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Waitlisted last year, >1500 SAT, weak GPA, double legacy law. Agree w/the PP, assume WL/rejection and plan the rest of the college list accordingly. But, ED if possible.[/quote] Forgot to clarify - kid did not apply ED because kid had not visited (covid) and we didn't realize kid's level of interest until RD. WL was probably legacy courtesy.[/quote] yes, very likely the wl was legacy courtesy. My kid was Deferred ED this year (single legacy), and denied RD. college counselor definitely thinks it was just a courtesy for legacy. Apparently NU does this. Then again, I've also heard NU only defers 1-2% of ED (not 60-70% like many of the ivies or other Elite schools), so we still held out a tiny bit of hope, with a great list of backups. [/quote]
