[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child is male, chances of admission to W&M are much better than UVA, whether you apply ED or RD.[/quote]

Maybe?  Yes in the past. But, no DEI means not giving preference to any protected group to balance the class. This should include males, as well as women, URMs, etc. the numbers rent out yet for 2025 and it won’t be fully know how no DEI plays out until the next application cycle. ED was already done when Trump signed his EOs.

And I support DEI in college admissions. I think a diverse class is important.  But if the only group getting a preference is UMC white guys from NOVA?  That would piss me off. [/quote]

Males aren't a protected class. Indeed, all the wailing about DEI is about giving whites and especially white males more advantages, so it is crazy to think that a school that preferences men will be in any kind of trouble. At any rate, there is nothing to my knowledge that prevents colleges from seeking to balance their m/f ratio. It may piss you off, but males have had a better chance of admission to W&M for many years.[/quote]
