Admission without Candidate Weekend

I was wondering, if there has ever been a student, admitted to NYUAD, who never went to the Candidate weekend? Or applied to, saying, ED II and went for RD Candidate weekend or even a separate one?

As far as I know, Candidate Weekend attendance is a requirement for admission to NYUAD and I have never heard of any student being admitted without attending CW. In special circumstances, such as visa issues, family emergencies, or critical schedule conflicts, a student can be deferred to a later candidate weekend, but this is rare.
