[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, LACs are very small. Applying to five LACs is roughly equivalent to applying to one large national university: our school sends about ten students a year to Cornell, but typically only one to Williams. Additionally, the school limits how many applications each student can submit.  I am not sure if it's wise to apply to LACs exclusively.  [b]Second, most SLACs do not offer an ED advantage—Middlebury is one notable exception[/b].  At the moment, Middlebury is not DC's dream school.  So there is no ED strategy.  I am also wondering if there is any consultant specialized in LACs.  [/quote]

This is just wrong wrong wrong. I don't know of a single SLAC that doesn't have an ED advantage. You can run the data and see.[/quote]

If not hooked ED at WASP does almost nothing.[/quote]

That may often be the case, but my unhooked kid got into a WASP school ED. In RD they would have been one of 15 applying. Who knows if they would have been the 1 (typically) admitted.[/quote]

Congrats on that![/quote]
