Since it's a comparatively easier ED admit, a lot of students don't have the option to go elsewhere, even where waitlists have moved in their favor.
Students who were admitted ED wouldn't be on any waitlists.
Yep. Most of Chicago's matriculants are locked into their spots.
+100 and they have ED2 round too. So almost all students are locked in with ED1 and ED2. It protects their yield.
So does Vanderbilt, and they went to WL?
Yes, my kid was deferred in RD, then accepted of the WL

100% true. My Chicago kid sees that as a positive, though. He has friends losing potential roommates and feeling ongoing uncertainty. He's happy to be locked in and assembled a friend group that's locked in as well.
Sounds like jail.
It is a risk averse group/mentality. Kind of sad at only 18 years old
