Here is one list.

I've also heard that colleges can tell if you've opened their emails to track interest.


college admission officers have no time for this. You people are delusional.


CWRU refers to their admissions staff as "enrollment management". They have time. https://case.edu/enrollmentmanagement/team-members


Case Western is one of many schools that value demonstrated interest.

Not everyone can afford to commit to full pay. Full stop.


Of course. Just means your child can not take advantage of the ED boost.

NP. The colleges have tracking software and do know if emails are opened and websites visited etc. Not delusional. It's really a thing.


My DD was not opening emails and got an emali from the AO saying "we've noticed you are not opening emails...".

I keep seeing demonstrated interest being mentioned but how can I tell of the colleges my kid is looking at is one of the ones that track? Some of his choices are out of state and I thought it would make more sense to visit only if he is admitted. But now I’m wondering if we should plan to visit ahead of acceptances.



When do you have to officially accept?

I agree but what if you can't afford the tuiion until you know if you'll get any merit. I think ED can be risky in that situation.


Agree ED can be a big risk. It is really tough. But applying ED is still the No. 1 way to demonstrate interest to any school.

NP to say AND it's also a way where the applicant "gives back" to the school by helping its yield. So it's really a silver bullet if done strategically

Assume they all do and you can look at the school’s Common Data Set.

100%. And the schools were clear about that at their open house presentations.

One college my DD applied to had her list how she knew about the college. Visits. College Fair, Open House, AO contact, etc. and had to specific the dates. I think this is a sign that demonstrated interest is important to them.

Not sure how many other colleges require this on their applications.
