If you are deferred in EA, does anyone know when RD is released?

i think tmr

I hope so! I’m thinking tomorrow since they usually do Tues or Thurs. But it is after 3 PM so…

I don’t see the post on IG. Can anyone share a screenshot please?

I feel like that 78% has to be way down by now. That was based off of earlier numbers with applicants in the 30,000’s. For 2023-2024 they got 40K applicants and 27K acceptances which is 70% right? With 44K applicants, isn’t that a 62% acceptance rate? Gulp!

It’s on the story rather than regular posts; so click on the profile pic to see the story.
