Agree. Esp given how open they are about not wanting scores like that.

Hopefully you didn't submit that SAT score...

Have no direct contact with Wash U but maybe your kid should reach out next week to the local rep about LOCI and see if they get any info?

WUSTL typically "shapes" the class with private full pay from their deferred ED.

What other colleges have this practice?

Almost all of them in that T15-25 range. Maybe others higher up in the food chain, too. From what I've heard, HYPSM do not do this.
And being male helps too on the WL - bc those kids are in demand.
Being an underrepresented major helps too - bc they shape class by all of these things (major, gender, full pay, geography, legacy status, donor capacity etc).

Unless your kid has a clear ED 2 preference, I would focus on making a stronger case for attendance.

We were also deferred with similar statistics. Looking at ED2 elsewhere. Possibly Tuft as I think DC has a better chance of getting in there.

WTH are you talking about? Of course that’s outstanding.

Public full pay is different than private full pay. Sadly.
I'd ED2 to your 2nd choice.

No the OP, but that is stupid. Full pay is full pay. Is WUSTL that snobbish?

Can you ask your COO? Not sure if they will make advocacy calls for your kid in Jan? WUSTL is one of the schools known to take those calls from our private.

Couldn't find the deferral rate for wustl. So it's difficult to say.

Public but full pay.
