[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares? They obviously think that they are getting good students, and don't feel the need to compete with the other schools. There are enough capable, qualified, "top" students to fill dozens of colleges; they don't need to chase the same students as every other school. And no sane person puts that much weight on "yield" and USNWR rankings. [/quote] Your post reveal a lack of understanding and a lack of knowledge about highly selective college admissions. A lot of time, effort, and money is spent by individual schools in an effort to predict yield. LACs that offer multiple ED rounds typically do so in order to increase yield rates and because they cannot compete with other schools. [/quote] You think that schools that offer ED2 "cannot compete?" So, Middlebury, Vanderbilt, Pomona, Washington University, Bowdon can't compete? Interesting. [/quote]
