[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The early decision acceptance rate for ED1 and ED2 is over 40 percent.  They also heavily weight demonstrated interest.  And anyone who applies ED and gets in is guaranteed a $20k per year scholarship.

Grinnell, Kenyon, Denison, Macalester.  These are the highest ranked LACs where a good student can get $20-25k in merit aid.  All are excellent schools.  [/quote]

Yes, they’re all excellent but Grinnell is clearly the best of the bunch [/quote]
Not really. I could list many things better about Kenyon, Denison, or Macalester. Grinnell really struggles to attract talent.[/quote]

Lol right.  That’s why they have more applicants than any of the others, a much lower acceptance rate, higher stats, and a much higher ranking [/quote]

Grinnell’s yield is also highest of the four, suggesting that if anything it has LESS trouble attracting talent than any of the four.  Kenyon is particularly pathetic when it comes to yield.  [/quote]
Your yield increases if you let everyone in during ED. Uchicago would love to talk to you about this strategy.[/quote]
