Small chance of getting in ED/Full Pay at these schools. NESCAC includes schools such as Williams, Amherst, Bowdoin, Wesleyan, Middlebury, and Tufts.

According to SCOIR data (within the last 3 years), a Sidwell student with a 3.1 GPA was admitted to Harvard. SCOIR doesn’t tell you if the student was an URM, legacy, or sports recruit. I’m pretty sure the kid comes from a wealthy family (plus at least one other hook). I don’t know it for a fact, I just know it’s true.

As an example, student with a 3.4/29 ACT, from a school likeSFS/GDS/Holton. Not an URM nor a legacy.
