[quote=Anonymous]I believe yield protectio is real, and that there isn’t anything wrong with it. A college wants to build a class of students that will be successful and actually come to their school. They are also looking for the right fit for their community. If they think a student is unlikely to come, I understand why they would want to give that spot to another student. My DC was rejected from several schools that she considered likelies/safeties and looking back on it, DC showed no demonstrated interest. DC also ended up attending a school with a much lower admit rate (like 40% lower) but I believe this school probably does not accept a lot of very high stat students realizing it is probably a “safety” for them. For my next child, I will make sure that he shows sincere interest in the safeties/likelies.[/quote]
