[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seconding pp who noted that Georgetown doens't have ED, only EA.

At my DC's well-ranked public HS, kids do get into Tufts, but only if they appy ED or ED2. Looking through Scoir/Naviance history, of the 40-50 students who applied in the last few years, not a single RD acceptance. Not one. So if Tufts is personally appealing to your DC, don't leave it up to RD unless your HS has a long history of RD acceptances. 
They're all good schools on that list - does your DC have a preference? ED2 is binding so while likelihood of acceptance is a factor, you should also strongly weigh his/her gut feelings about where they want to be. [/quote]

This is all high school specific. Study your schools data - it’s a likely indicator of what’s to come.

Our private gets 1-2 into Tufts RD every year.

Vandy RD is reserved for very top of class. Usually 2 in RD and 3-4 in ED rounds.

WashU 1-2 in RD but depends on ED utilization. Already have 3 in to WUSTL with ED1. So unclear what happens in ED2 and RD. WUSTL seems more popular than in years past.

Private, Not in DC.[/quote]
