Do students that get deferred during ED actually get admitted during RD? Or is it just false hope?

146

We know two students last year who were deferred, then waitlisted -who got in.

By the time WF sends out RD acceptances all of his EA schools will have sent a decision. The saying still stands “love the school that loves you back”

148

Even with EA decisions in you don’t have to commit until May 1.

I know a student who was deferred early decision 1 last year, admitted RD and is now a student at Wake.

I would reach out to admissions on Monday and make sure they have everything for a complete file. Do not chance waiting another month to just have this happen again. Most likely they just have not gotten to your application.

Is the interview mandatory?

152

No. Even if you request one, you may not get chosen for an interview. But an interview or submission of the video are both optional.

153

Ok - I kind of read through the other messages and it seemed like a “necessary” thing :wink:

154

There’s optional and then there is optional. If you can’t get an interview, it might be beneficial to still do the video.

Do you know if your counselor submitted their recommendation on time (in September)? We applied to a different school ED1 in August and just learned from the common app site that our counselor didn’t submit their recommendation until this past weekend. It doesn’t make a difference for us because the school my D24 applied to ED1 does NOT have rolling admissions. But just wondering if maybe that’s what happened to your app? Good luck!

Application was sent ED on 10/29. All necessary forms were checked early November and video was uploaded 11/5. So does that mean we will not hear anything until 12/29? Seems so late with many colleges having EDII and RD due Jan 1st. Plus the holidays so close to the end of the month. TIA

You are correct, you will hear in late December. There were three other rounds earlier.

Yep. Kids have been applying ED to Wake since August.

Does anyone know the date that the October round of decisions are going to be released?
