<p>How much of a chance does a legacy applicant who was deferred ED have in the regular decision round?</p>
<p>3.14159%</p>
<p>Duh.</p>
<p>well, i would assume they’re still categorized as a deferred applicant, which is around 10%. i was also deferred from columbia. i really hope we both get in :)</p>
<p>I was deferred too…</p>
<p>Columbia’s is the first decision I’m checking on Wednesday cause I’m pretty sure it’ll be a rejection 
bleh</p>
<p>I have heard that often legacys are routinely deffered and then taken RD.
There are colleges who waitlist legacys as a courtesy as well.</p>
<p>I wanted to bump this thread and ask if anyone else knows if what PlentyQuestions said is true?</p>
<p>Examine the question yourself College: obviously SOME legacies who get deferred get in later in RD. Also some get outright rejected. Some non-legacies get deferred and later get in. Many also get rejected. I doubt you’ll find any particular pattern</p>
<p>The WL feature for legacies has been oft-discussed. Wouldn’t surprise me though</p>
