Tufts. Not exactly a T20 but DC always likes it and it’s a great fit for his intended major.

Historically deferred kids have a much higher chance of getting in to many top schools from a private. The college counselors know the reps well.


Can you provide any proof of this, or is it something you just “feel?”

Typical DCUM bullshit. Treating anecdotes as facts.

Thanks everyone for the input. DC has decided it’s best to move on. He has a second choice for ED2 that he will be happy to attend and is less selective. Good luck to all the deferrals.

Pre-covid, JHU places ~15% ED pool on deferral. Not sure what is the current practice on deferral as no one is reporting data anymore.
