[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It happens all the time-yield protection. Those high stats students are frequently waitlisted. [/quote] This. This happened to our DC. Got into two of three reach schools, both national USN top 40s. Got into the very best of the safeties. Did NOT get into a single other safety. The safeties that are regularly used as safeties have become sophisticated at managing the statistics. They know who is just not likely to enroll. If your DC wants to go to a school for which DC is above-high-numbers, it is very wise to directly contact admissions, express interest, maybe apply early, definitely do a formal visit - so that they know that DC is likely to enroll and is not simply filing with a safety.
