<p>Depending on my outcome from my Duke ED1 result, I'm thinking about applying to Middlebury EDII.
I've heard though that EDII at Middlebury is not as much of an advantage as EDI, is this true?
and that it's not much of an advantage over RD</p>
<p>Someone in an earlier thread dug up the statistics and the admit rate is much higher for ED I than it is for regular while the ED II rate is only slightly higher. However, you have to figure that ED I has a lot of athletes who were essentially told to apply ED I, so of course the rate will be higher. I believe that ED II can give you a slight edge. Even if you get deferred at least Midd knows that you are someone very committed to the school and it might give a slight edge for regular admission. That leaves you deciding if a slight edge is enough for you to give up on the other schools you are interested in.</p>
