[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given that ED2 is by definition your second choice school, how many kids feel strongly enough about their second choice to go ED2? Seems like apply RD and give yourself the most options. Especially because the ED2 admit rate is usually a lot lower than the ED1 rate - you are giving up your power of choice for a small (if any) admission rate advantage compared to RD.[/quote]

Ours had two first choice schools: an Ivy and a top school with ED2. She planned all along to do ED2 at the school that offered it if she was rejected ED1 at the school that didn’t. The plan worked, and she is very happy at the ED2 school, as expected.

FWIW she went to a private high school where she got substantial financial aid, and the same holds for college. Far from ED2 schools loving private school kids because they’re all rich—essentially what many people here claim—they like *certain* private schools because the academic standards set students up for success in very demanding college environments. Both schools have need-blind admissions.[/quote]
