<p>dd is applying RD. She's already accepted EA at Chicago, so is just picking her top 3 other schools to apply to. She wants to know if she can apply EE. all her transcripts and rec's are in and she can send her app today, but she has not yet sent the SAT's. We can send them rush. Will she be considered? or is it a waste because of the SAT's. Is there any advantage or reason to apply EE? She's not stressed about getting in, but it will be a serious contender if she's admitted. And we need good need-based fin'l aid.</p>
<p>I don't think EE will affect the aid. I think she can apply EE and if the SAT's aren't in when they review her file she will just be rolled over to RD. I don't <em>think</em> there's an advantage except for knowing early. If I recall, the profile for EE students was something like 98-100 percent of Likelies being admitted, 1/3 of Possible, no Unlikely. I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't find the exact stats by clicking around the Wellesely admissions web pages.</p>
<p>She says thanks. She's decided to apply RD, even thought she think there's an advantage to EE in that the AO's reading you early. SAT's are not in plus she is sending a published article supplement. She says the website deadlines are in bold and doesn't want to mess with them.</p>
<p>Yeh, what I want to know is... Is EE a big advantage or something?
Because on Wellesley's admissions website it says last year 61% of ED applicants were accepted. And for EE it was 49% and only 27% for RD..</p>
<p>Also I noticed that Wellesley seems to place a lot of importance on SAT scores... Because if you look at this site: <a href="http://www.wellesley.edu/Admission/admission/statistics.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.wellesley.edu/Admission/admission/statistics.html</a> .. you will see that the higher the SAT scores the more acceptances...if you know what I mean..</p>
<p>So, does this mean that EE is better than RD? :/
Is Wellesley the only school that does EE?</p>
<p>You know those acceptance rates that I posted in my previous post (above)... Is the EE acceptance rate so high because the ED deferrals are considered as "EE" applicants....?</p>
