BU does this, too, and there are probably others.[/quote]

Cornell has been doing this for decades. I was offered a spot in the following year’s class back in 1990 and now they have a transfer option. [/quote]

I know at least 5 kids who were offered (and accepted) the Cornell transfer option. But somehow it's okay because it's Cornell?[/quote]

Yes, Cornell has had this program for many years.  What I don't get are all of the people saying it's a win-win because you save money.  I don't think kids these days - especially the ones headed to Cornell or UChicago - want to go to local community college classes for a year and save their parents money.  They would much prefer to live on campus as a freshman and have the whole college experience.  Not to mention, the one community college class I took was terrible - the instructor was not a good teacher and gave everyone Bs and Cs.[/quote]

sorry but cornell does not have ED 0 and will require test scores[/quote]

Just go on Reddit and see how many 1550+ kids were rejected by UChicago in ED1. UChicago has been test optional for a very long time (before covid). Still, the vast majority of kids submit SAT or ACT. [/quote]
