But I’ve been heard/read that the ED1 numbers aren’t exactly accurate because colleges use a lot of their early spots for athletes and legacies.

@SupertutorTV Жыл бұрын

This is true at top ten colleges for sure- esp Harvard and Penn- and when you see 1.5x odds at schools yes. But when 80% or 50% of a class is filled early they are not all athletes or legacy- Harvard runs one of the stronger legacy games and they are probably 15-20% legacy vs 30% as they used to be. The trend toward ED is rising though

Legacy! Lol. It only matters if the alumni are donating money. If no money coming in then legacy is meaningless for admissions. I work at an elite school.

@jchiu4375 Жыл бұрын

I think the ED numbers are completely skewed not only by legacies and athletes but also targeted URM, low income and 1st generation students. A lot of Top schools will do Flyover programs so if those kids apply, they will probably get accepted. Bottom line: If you are a normal student without a hook (athlete, legacy,. URM , low income), your chances are probably almost identical between ED and RD - maybe a couple of % higher - not 20-30%

@brookifyd Жыл бұрын

From working as an independent consultant-- 50% of my students* who applied ED/REA/EA to their top choice school (or regular if to a UC as top choice) got in-- second round the drop off was STEEP last year. Things are changing and I'm seeing huge advantage early right now with the cohort I work with (typically not URM/low income, typically NOT athlete, legacies excluded I get those sometimes but didn't have many last year-- but may have great activities, incredible accomplishments, amazing recs and always strong stats) (*24/36 of my students elected to respond to our annual survey, majority of those who didn't respond did ~1-2 lessons only vs more)

Great video! I didn’t see Yale or Stanford (the 2 schools my daughter is considering for EA). Can I assume there’s not much advantage for EA at either school? Do you have EA stats for either school? Thanks!

@SupertutorTV Жыл бұрын

Yale should be on the blog chart did you check that? Stanford doesn't release data but IMO there is an advantage to early. At least from my students that I work w/. Particularly when a school sends multiple students SCEA it leaves little room for great candidates RD who didn't get in at Harvard etc. even if they were stronger candidates than the ones already admitted. supertutortv.com/college/best-kept-secret-in-college-admission-rates/

Brooke, I remember that you did a video referencing applying ED to the Ivies may not be a good strategy if you are not a legacy as they are advised to apply ED and that could be a big pool of applicants. Does the ED% account for all of the legacies, i.e. Yale’s ED Pool%. Thank you and love your informational videos!!

@mikeunconfirmed1489 Жыл бұрын

This video is a little misleading. In addition to legacy, you got donor’s and All recruited athletes applying ED.

@SupertutorTV Жыл бұрын

Right these stats over represent the advantage at about top five or top ten schools (at HYPS for ex) That was my point in the other video. There is still an advantage conferred though I would say even without athletics or legacy at least from what I’ve been seeing post Covid. This is the first cycle of data that we’ve had post Covid so I am shifting on my advice on this point given that data. We’ve not seen early numbers this high in the past I think “. I also had a couple kids get in regular who did SCEA last year and I think that extra knowledge that a college is the students first choice helps. Below the top ten or so these stats underrepresent the early advantage IMO

@brookifyd Жыл бұрын

NYU notoriously gaps people on aid. Their aid sucks. You can reject it if you can't afford it but you get to decide the line you can afford. Just don't go to a more $$$ school after that if you turn it down. But if you ED you should be prepared to go to NYU and not go to Princeton. You'll need to tell them what your negotiation line is with aid and they may not tell you immediately what they can do for you. I had a student at an Ivy request more aid and it didn't come through until early March.
