[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you can only ED at one school? What if you ED at a reach and get waitlisted there?[/quote] Right. ED is binding. If you get waitlisted, pick an ED2 school threats ranked a little lower. [/quote] But then what happens to your ED1 choice if they finally decide to admit you? Does the waitlist/deferred status cancel the obligation to attend the first school? [/quote] Once an ED school moves you to deferred status you are in with the RD applicants, and their is no Obligation to attend. Many elite schools defer significant portions of their ED applicants, because it's almost a guaranteed yield/enrollment if they then select them in RD, so it increases their yield. Harvard typically defers well over 50% of their ED applicants. So they take 50% of freshman from ED and who knows, but I'd guess 25%+ from the ED deferrals. This gives a near guaranteed yield of 75%+. [/quote]
