Common App direct admission to Denison?

I’m not discounting your point, but the direct admission offers are conditional. As I theorized above, my guess is that something went amiss with the Common App system, causing offers to be sent to way too many students. This is not unlike colleges that have mistakenly sent letters of acceptance to seniors but then had to withdraw those offers. It can be lousy for the student, but mistakes/errors happen. Denison is a small school with about 640 kids in each class. The last thing that should happen is thousands of kids (with great financial need) are mistakenly guaranteed admission before the ED and RD cycle even begins. Can you imagine if it was supposed to be 50 kids and some Common App AI intern typed in 5000?
