[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, all ED schools are not "brand name colleges". Look at the list among the top 40 ranked LACs. Is Occidental a brand name college ? Dickinson ? Scripps ? Pitzer ? University of the South ? Union ? Conn College ? St. Olaf ? Whitman ? Skidmore ? Oberlin ? Etc. Of course they are not brand name colleges. LACs use multiple ED rounds to secure and lock-in students to enhace yield rates and to artificially lower acceptance rates. [/quote] That may be YOUR opinion but yes, Occidental (where Obama went for two years) is considered a brand name college. That is one reason why so few public universities have early decision (most of them being in Virginia). And btw, many top NUs (the ones most would consider brand names) do use "multiple" ED rounds to lock in students.[/quote]
