[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a Vanderbilt alum who has never donated $1 and am not involved. My DC who had in-range stats at their competitive public HS was deferred ED2, in for RD this year. [/quote] For the SLAC’s at least, the “buzz” is that you need to apply ED to get the legacy bump. My kid applied RD at a WASP where he’s a legacy and was waitlisted. Fortunately their expectations going in were low to non-existent. [/quote] Yes that’s why they applied ED2, we were surprised with the deferral and eventual admit to be honest. Was Al expecting a rejection given admit rate in RD. They had no super high level EC’s. Just kind of above average high achiever type kid.[/quote] Vandy is known for a big legacy boost as well as a sibling preference, but must file ED.[/quote]
