[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Between their summer ED 0 admission cycle, their ED I, ED II, and completely hiding their early decision stats, I think that is a big negative for the college.  I understand not all colleges put out all information, but you have to wonder what they are hiding if they reveal nothing while 99% of other schools reveal the same information.  Dartmouth doesn't show its SAT scores which I can't believe, but then I looked and looked.  It really is a big game to these colleges.  [/quote]

Chicago is completely different from JHU and Northwestern, the latter two never hid their numbers.  JHU ED acceptance rate is 11%.  Chicago never dares to disclose their ED acceptance rate.

This practice certainly impacts their student quality in the long run.  Rank #1 in yield rate may look impressive to the ignorant, but in reality they are just getting mediocre private school kids in the ED run.  80% of their class probably.[/quote]

When Yale let's in applicants with SATs in the 1300's and unverified international students from ND, that seems like more of a joke...just saying. Let's be real. Private school can verify a kid and their track record for rigor sometimes....[/quote]
