I understand that you love both schools, but have you considered waiting purely for financial purposes? If you truly would love going to both, maybe wait to apply regular decision and see which one gives you more money? Both Kenyon and Macalester offer merit aid scholarships (assuming that financial aid isn’t a problem).
However, if you’re set on applying ED, it would make sense to choose the school with a 41% acceptance rate over the 29% acceptance rate, right?
