[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In-state acceptance rates this year ED: 29.5% (2,795 applications) EA: 25% (11,240) RD: 11% (3,519) They say that they get their best applications early, which makes sense. It's hard to get in regardless. It's not like they're accepting 50% vs 10%.[/quote] EA is the most competitive pool at UVA and also when they admitted recruited athletes. There is a true advantage to ED, not sure why the university pretends there isn’t. Anecdotally, kids who aren’t admitted ed but deferred and then waitlisted seem to have a higher likelihood of being pulled from waitlist.[/quote] You need to check the stats from your own school. At my kid's school the most competitive applicants don't apply ED to UVA but apply ED/SCEA to Ivies and similar. They submit EA to UVA and keep this app in if they don't get their ED Ivy. There are exceptions to every rule but in general the stronger kids apply EA and not ED because of the above. [/quote]
