<p>Has anyone gotten in ED2? How much does it help your chances compared to RD?</p>
<p>Our son was accepted ED to Bucknell a couple of years ago. I remember sitting in an admissions session during his junior year in HS and the rep explained that close to 60% of the incoming class would already be filled before they even started looking at the RD applicants. This 60% is comprised of ED1 and ED2 applicants as well as student athletes, legacies, etc. So when the RD review begins there are only about 400 slots remaining for 7000-8000 applicants. Definitely better odds to go ED if your stats are competitive and you know Bucknell is for you. By the way our son is thriving at Bucknell - working hard but managing to have a lot of fun too!! </p>
