i’d assume they probably see it as helping them, or they wouldn’t do it. Uchicago doesn’t accept the common app and look at their acceptance rate: 40%, and they still have only about a 30% yield or something.

I guess what I think is that the increase in applicants (due to accepting the common app) will outweigh the decrease in yield. So i suppose i think it WILL actually help.
