Honestly, the most important thing to consider when applying is your own sanity. Take a few deep breaths, try and find your calm spot, and remember that whatever happens will happen. I feel the calmest when flying and in airports (weird ik), so I literally booked a round trip ticket from Pennsylvania to Utah just so I could clear my mind and write! First draft and after showing it to teachers and friends I decided it was what I wanted it to be and submitted. Already been accepted into 1 University and waiting on the other five... good luck everyone!

Another factor that may increase early admit rates is that recruited athletes are often told to apply early, and they have very high admit rates

@freakyunderdog

Yes exactly, that's precisely the case of ED Dartmouth and its infamous ED admission rate; it's bumped up mostly because of recruited-athletes.

For anyone who’s feeling down: Romans 8:18 “The pain you’ve been feeling can’t compare to the joy that is coming!” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Whatever is going on right now, have faith, your situation will get better. :) Jesus bless anyone reading this and have a great day!!🥰✨💖

First video who understands the difference between stats and probabilities. At our school, 10 kids applied ED to Dartmouth and only 2 got in. But 6 of those who didn’t get in had an SAT less than 1450 and a GPA less than 3.3 So really depends on where you are. Your probability could be zero or 50%.

@chrislee367

Definitely -- "not all candidates have the same chances." I have a short list that I've made for one certain school and guessing on those, they probably have very high chances. Comes down to: Right stats Great fit Right achievements

I applied to two of my colleges early action. I didn't do early decision because if you get accepted, you HAVE to get there.

CORRECTION! We discovered that our data for Harvard appears to have mistakenly included about 349 deferrals from previous admissions cycles. The REA admit rate is still 7.4%, but the regular decision admit rate is 2.6%, and the total admit rate is 3.4%. The chart in our blog is updated to reflect the corrected numbers. We apologize for the error!

There's more to this, though. Colleges can raise their yield rates while lowering overall acceptance rates by taking half their new class from the ED pool, though it's much much smaller. Almost anyone's chances are higher if they apply ED (binding). But of course, having your application polished is a given.

Well thanks to this video I now regret submitting my application earlier. Since for my past act test I felt like I did a lot better. Also I'm not that exceptional so I needed everything I could get.

@brookifyd

Please don't have regrets!! In terms of tests etc. if you can just get deferred instead of rejected you will still have a chance. Likewise, my hope is that you understand that MORE STUDENTS GET INTO A GREAT SCHOOL DURING REGULAR ADMISSIONS than get in early. Every year I have students get in somewhere great during regular admissions as often as I have equally qualified students getting in early. I'm just trying to debunk the myth that you must do early or else!! If your last ACT was better, LET THE SCHOOL KNOW as soon as your score drops! They may very well still take it into consideration.

If you had a LOT of B's freshman year. A's and a couple b's sophomore/junior year as available. School had no grades for part of COVID or totally inflated grades or something so you don't stand out much, but you're legit getting straight As now. Even in this case though, it's not ALWAYS bad to apply early-- if a school has more than 2x probability of early admissions it's probably still ok esp ED as they know you're sold on their school then and you may up your chances still. Sometimes the strategy is case-by-case according to the school, its stats, and how many students it historically "defers" vs. rejects. If you can just get to deferred it doesn't matter much.

"If your classes are more challenging senior year" On the commonapp, there is a section for inputting your senior year classes. Does this not count?

So if I’m a primary legacy at Northwestern, should I have done ED? I didn’t, but does it still help with RD?

Admissions rates are higher during early action b/c that is when the university admits the athletes, children of faculty, donors insiders, and friends of the Dean. Now with test optional, there is no disincentive for them to limit the percentage of these special interest applicants. In the past, their test scores would damage the university's profile if their are too many of them.

Without watching the video yes, I had a bad junior year and now have a 3.2 gpa while on 4.0 pace with max aps in senior year, why would I not wait to send the good grades in

This is true-- it was in my notes and probably even in one of the takes but didn't make the final cut for whatever reason-- this is mixed in w/ the alumni weight in early rounds. But the story is the same. EA /REA / ED isn't the advantage many think it is.

While considering the batch of 2023 applicants, will the college consider that COVID has impacted the activity section of students?

I'm often waiting to expire date, have to think early bird get warm worn.

Can you define “legacy”? Is it only parents or can it be a cousin, grandparent or sibling? Is one generation a legacy or does it have to be multiple generations?

About point number 4, don't colleges still see your senior classes regardless since we have to fill those out in the common app?

I guess the whole ED/RD comes down to the school. A dream school like Ivies, Stanford, MIT, or pretty much anything in the top 20, better to wait if you are improving grades and stuff. However for schools outside the typical “dream” schools, like Emory, Northeastern, BC, NYU, then ED/EA is crucial since RD is full of competitive applicants who are going for the ivies.
