[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that the deadline has passed, it will be interesting to see how things play out. I don't expect TJ to release updated statistics right away, so we can probably only speculate for now - although they will likely eventually be forced to do so. This whole process was presumably not something they initiated voluntarily, but only because they felt that they were forced to do so.

The Post article says roughly 33% ED among admits, which is roughly 181 students. If, say, 2/3 of them are genuinely ED and were able to provide documentation, that means 60 are not. Given how competitive admissions are, I wouldn't be surprised if almost all of those 60 lose their seats once they lose the wrongly awarded experience factor points. That means roughly 60 seats open up.

It makes sense for them to combine this process with the first round of admits from the wait pool. Even with a yield as high as 90%, which seems unlikely, 55 admits will have declined their seats.

That makes a total of perhaps 115 newly available seats.[b] I suspect they will want to fill as many of those seats with ED applicants as they can.[/b]

Of course, this is all just spitballing, and if anyone has insight into more accurate numbers I'd love to hear it!

Or go down the waitlist based on updated scores - removing ED bonus points for those unable to document FARM.

Or I wonder if people who aren't ED are just bumped from the waitlist.
