[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ED doesn’t help at Williams if unhooked and admissions flat out says that at info sessions. Combo of legacy/athletes/low income getting preference at ED. But Williams also seems to care more about both legacies and athletics than peer schools.[/quote] Yes, and there's all kinds of hooks during the ED rounds that overinflates the higher admission rate - recruited athletes who have already passed pre-reads and have coach support, legacies, FGLI, Questbridge matches, and nepo-baby/donor kids. This leaves very few spots for normal high-achievers. Those are just facts. It's too bad many on this thread don't want to accept it. I don't think OP wants to burst your bubble for no reason. Ofc you can apply where you want ED, just be prepared for a very likely rejection and prepare for it. But if the choice is between a SLAC and a bigger or mid-size college, pick the bigger one if you want a larger chance of getting accepted![/quote]
