[quote=Anonymous]Yes, lots of “selective” schools employ measures like these (hello Colby, Middlebury, Hamilton, NYU, Northeastern, etc.). You could even say that schools that work the waitlist after RD decisions, where need blind often becomes need aware, are essentially doing the same thing or something similar. I don’t begrudge these schools doing what they need to do to meet their numbers and secure sufficient tuition revenue. The common app hs made the chase for students a war for these schools. What I find most disingenuous is that the schools dont have to report the stats for these non traditional starts on their admissions numbers. It makes those schools look much more selective than they really are. Want the tuition dollars, great. Own the admissions data that comes with it. [/quote]
