If you are deferred does that mean it is unlikely that you will get a scholarship for RD

1140

What is that???

1141

we have a friend who got into michigan and rejected from miami ā€“ so you never know

Congrats to everyone who got in! When deferred, I assume it goes into the RD pool ā€“ when do those come out?

Iā€™m sorry man. Thatā€™s what happens when I school tries to yield protect for no reason. Honestly furious. I probably wouldnā€™t have went here but the fact I got into Richmond and deferred from Miami is hilarious.

Iā€™ll summarize it again. They defer over achieving applicants because they think you are using them as a safety.

ā€œYield protection is an admissions practice where a university or academic institution rejects or wait-lists highly qualified students on the grounds that such students are bound to be accepted by more prestigious universities or programs.ā€

hearing tons of deferrals

1151

I had to scroll down to check. There is a separate financial aid/scholarship letter. I thought I got nothing too but I actually got the Presidential scholarship! I wasnā€™t a finalist or anything either so I was shocked.
