Wesleyan ED I applicant deferred to ED II

I applied to Wesleyan as ED I but was deferred to ED II. In my letter, they talked about it having to do with academic preparation, but I’m wondering if anyone else knew what it might mean. I know typically people get deferred to RD so is there anyone who’s been in this situation who can clarify? I really really wanna go there and it is my absolute top choice so does anyone have any idea on what my chances might be in comparison to strong applicants in the RD pool?

Hey! I also got deferred to ED2. My college counselor said it was because they want to see our midyear grades before they make a final decision.

thanks!
