[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, the games colleges play. Ivy legacies at our school (with top grades, big donor parents) are often deferred and then accepted RD. They all eventually get in. But when they get deferred, they put in another 20-25 apps out of panic. So 20-25 top schools get an app from a kid that is never going to matriculate. I saw this happen 5 times last year and know at least 5 this year. It's just dumb behavior (by the Ivy). [/quote] Not just ivies. Northwestern and Duke began doing this as well.[/quote]
