[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There clearly is a huge acceptance rate in ED, so yes, there is an advantage.  Further, recruited athletes are told to apply EA so they are not in the ED applicant pool like they are at other schools.[/quote]

Doesn't mean there's an advantage, the pool could be stronger.[/quote]

If we are going by what Dean J says, EA is the strongest pool And it also is when athletic recruits apply.

I will say that UVA’s public statements about legacies also don’t seem to be a hundred percent accurate.

ED has the best admissions odds, by their own data, regardless of what the website says.[/quote]

The legacy stuff is weird.  They have an essay to talk about it but then say they don’t consider it or race. [/quote]

All schools are now doing that post the Scotus decision. Roberts said race could be discussed in the essay. So the box is gone and applicants are told to bring up race in the essay[/quote]

[b]UVA has both a diversity essay and a UVA connections essay [/quote][/b]

Most schools have multiple prompts.  Ask any college counselor.  They will tell you to work your story into an essay.  That's where the game is now being played.[/quote]

+1.  ^^ Most prompts are sufficiently open-ended to allow for this[/quote]
