<p>S (legacy) was deferred two years ago and then accepted regular decision with a 33 ACT, 2140 SAT and 3.9 weighted GPA. Six out of approximately 70 students from his H.S. were accepted the year before that, but two years earlier, a H.S. teammate was rejected in EA with a 34 ACT, before getting a full ride to Tulane. I think a 32 ACT combined with a very strong app merits going for the EA. If the app is strong, they should defer your child at the least. If they reject an otherwise strong app EA, they probably would have rejected it for the same reason in regular decision.</p>
