Apparently Wash U doesn't like giving out the ED rates but i would assume ED I and II are the same and maybe slighlty higher (25% - 30%) than
RD (20% - 22%)

I'm guessing on the ED %'s but the RD % is true

I always thought EDII was always slightly lower since it's sometimes used as a second ED or EA school if the 1st ended in a deferral or rejection

the acceptance rate is not less than 10% ( idk what ur talking about maybe u should get ur facts straight before you post next time)

10% is referring to the applicants that attend the college freshman year out of the total applications (19000 applied maybe 4500 accepted but only 1500 go) the 1500 is where ur getting ur 10% (do some more research buddy)
