Multiple seniors from same HS applying ED: Any impact on individual applicants?

<p>The title says it all , , , what, if any, is the effect on each individual ED applicant from one high school if multiple applicants from the same (high-performing, very competitive, NYC suburban) high school are applying ED? Obviously, they only compete against those who are applying to the same UG college within Cornell (I think). But let's say that five students are applying ED to CAS, two applying ED to ILR, and four applying ED to engineering. Within each of those categories, would the admissions committee compare applicants from the same HS? Would they decide that they do not want to admit multiple students from the same HS? Or do they just evaluate each student on his/her own merits? Could four students from the same HS get into Cornell engineering ED if they all have the qualifications? Could two get into ILR ED? Etc. </p>

<p>Thanks for any insight.</p>
