What’s the downside to a strong candidate trying for this if rejected by their first choice REA/EDI at Ivy+ and Vanderbilt is genuinely their second choice?
Also, any stats or insight re kids who got in EDII? Where did they REA/EDI?
You've described every single kid whose ED1 to somewhere other than X (in your case, Vandy) was denied. Don't you think that almost every single kid who applies ED2 somewhere "genuinely" wants that place as their second choice? Your kid is like every single ED2 candidate and Vandy knows this was your kid's second choice. No harm in doing it, but saying "genuinely is our second choice" gives you no leg up.
