With the various schools’ early audition yes/no/deferrals coming out this month, I’m wondering how much the schools shrink their applicant pools with their yes/no/deferrals…I’m sure it varies by school, by thoughts/information from those who have heard about this (or experienced it) would be welcome!
Well, to the extent they give a “yes” that shrinks the remaining offers available. Each school has a specific number of offers they will give to obtain their desired yield. The deferrals should not change anything as they will be considered along with everyone else in March when the final offers go out.
