Official Regular Decision Admissions Thread for Class of 2027

[DigitalDad]

There is speculation that some colleges/universities may have been motivated because the Dept of Education has narrowed the definition of what constitutes an “application” (by not counting incompletes) - which in turn changes acceptance rates across the board.

Rather than cross-posting:

Is EA Backfiring for High Stats Kids?

Okay - so it’s about the IPEDS. They updated FAQ #3 in section ADM to clarify how incompletes are to be reported - or not (e.g., whether any partial information is still reviewed, or whether it disqualifies from the onset). It will be good to “normalize” that data point!
