<p>Is the acceptance rate lower for ED II?
I am an int'l student living in California.
I was wondering if doing ED II will be worth trying...</p>
<p>Oh, and also, do other schools find out if you do ED or not?</p>
<p>I've never seen any breakdown of acceptance rates for EDI versus EDII. The reported rates are almost always combined.</p>
<p>Other schools find out if you were accepted ED because you have to withdraw any other apps you've already submitted (and because I think there is probably some kind of mechanism for schools to share their binding ED acceptance lists in order to prevent shenanigans).</p>
<p>I don't believe that a school would know if you simply applied somewhere else ED unless you or your guidance counselor tells them.</p>
<p>ah hah, thanks sir!</p>
