The column in discussed in this current and very active thread:

Students reneging on ED acceptances more than in past?

I’ve already seen a few posts from students wanting to back out of ED acceptances. I believe we are going to see more and more of this as admissions to highly selective schools get ever more competitive. Everyone is looking for an edge. Students are panicking and applying ED to very selective schools to improve their chances, then realizing they might have made a mistake. What are you hearing? Are students managing to get out of their ED agreements? Is this a trend? Will this become a big enough problem that colleges and high schools will be forced to take action? Interested in others’ thoughts.

Feel free to join the conversation there. Closing.
