[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hearing stories of very few admitted ED1, many (unexpectedly) rejected outright and few deferrals.

Any personal insight?

What does this say about larger early decision trends?[/quote]

What is an "(unexpectedly) rejected outright" decision? How is that possible in these times?

Legacy may be a light thumb on the scale for qualified applicants, but will not necessarily work for students who are in the lower range or below of admit stats. [/quote]

The pp didn’t mention legacy.  My guess is the applicants had high stats and therefore expected, worse cases to be deferred based on prior applicant experience at their high school.[/quote]

Yes. Based on our private, hearing this.[/quote]

I included legacy because I couldn't possibly imagine what "(unexpectedly) rejected outright" could possibly mean in these times save that. I do know a case from 2 years ago - not a NESCAC - where a recruited athlete was told "all's good," then got dinged ED1.

Can't imagine that folks possibly still think that even prior year can be predictive here.[/quote]
