DD24 applied EA.
As best we can calculate (seriously every single school calculates it differently), 94.5/100 which translates to 3.7UW/4.0W???. Test optional. Good EC’s (internship, varsity athlete-captain, tons of volunteer work, teaching assistant for language department at her HS, etc.). Cox applicant.

Hoping for the best but it appears this year will be beyond competitive, even worse than last year, so we may have to revert to her safe schools as most southern universities are getting slammed with applications.

I think you are right on about the influx of applications. What I’m not sure about is whether the overall pool of applicants is more superior from one year to the next. So competitive!

Does anyone have a sense that SMU ED decisions might come out this afternoon?

Anyone hear anything about SMU ED Decision Date?
