<p>I think there will be significantly more EA applicants in light of the fact that Harvard, Princeton and UVa have dropped their early admit rounds. Anyone who wants to apply to those three schools in January has to limit his or her applications to EA or rolling admission schools. Georgetown certainly would fit the bill for a number of those kids. The regular round should increase somewhat for most of the top schools due to the size of the incoming class, and the trend towards an increasing number of applications per student.</p>
