[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Class of 2025 parent chiming in just to say that I wouldn't count on: -a ED deferral turning into an admission. At many top universities it's under 5% and it seemed to be even lower around here. -RD decision results being great. Having seen an admissions cycles from start-to-finish I would contradict a previous poster who said not to ED2. In retrospect I wish my child had. They were so in love with their ED1 school (Dartmouth) but Dartmouth basically strung them along (and a half dozen other kids at their school and many other kids we know across the DMV) for 9 months. No one ever got in and they wasted so much emotional energy. It was brutal and unnecessary and then they lost out on an ED2 chance at places like Bowdoin, Vanderbilt, WashU etc. Once you get into RD at these schools you're looking at a <3% chance of admission. [/quote] Where did your child end up? [/quote]
