For those who were admitted EA...

<p>For those who were admitted EA..did any others from your high school get admitted EA? If so, how many? I was told by admissions that you are competing with the general pool but also competing with the applicants from your high school. I was just wondering if ND admitted more than one from a particular school EA.</p>

<p>What’s ND?</p>

<p>Two students were accepted EA of the three who appliedfrom our school. My son was deferred, and accepted RD. He was the only male of the three, one of two legacies, had the highest test scores, was in the middle of a very tight GPA spread, had the weakest EC’s (no varsity sports) and was the only one who enrolled.</p>

<p>laketime- thanks for the response…interesting…uzzwal…ND…Notre Dame…sorry too many acronyms!</p>

<p>laketime…I just re-read your post. It is kind of strange that your son got deferred ( but happily got accepted) even though he had higher test scores than the other applicants. Do you think it was because they were girls or because of the weak EC’s? Did he have other EC’s to compensate for not playing a Varsity sport? Obviously he was a good candidate because they accepted him! Do you mind saying what his test scores were so we have a gauge?</p>
