<p>I'm on the fence on whether to apply to Yale SCEA or RD. The reason I would want to apply regular decision is because I know most students who are recruited for sports apply early and are accepted at that time. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but the already super-competitive application pool is even more competitive for EA and there's a tighter limit to how many people they can accept at the time. Long story short, I really love Yale, but I would like a better chance. What would you do?</p>
