[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My OOS kid deferred.  Things are changing so quickly that Naviance is no longer useful.  According to Naviance for DC’s school, every kid in last 5 years with stats equivalent to DC has been accepted.  This makes it so hard to accurately identify reach/target/safety when planning applications.

[b]UVA’s blog post from last year makes it clear that very, very, VERY few deferrals become acceptances.[/b][/quote]

Yes, and it makes me wonder why they defer so many. Only 72 kids who were initially deferred were admitted in RD last year: http://uvaapplication.blogspot.com/2022/03/2022-uva-regular-decision-admission.html[/quote]

Because in an environment in which applications increase by 20 percent a year while the overall number of students applying to college is constant, schools don’t know how yield will shake out year to year.

No question the deferral acceptance rate was very low last year, but before that it was 4 percent and a year or two before that, 8 percent.  Some deferrals will be waitlisted and the number taken off the wait list can also fluctuate dramatically from year to year.[/quote]
