Unfortunately，a lot of kids like me were deferred by Middlebury College a couple of days ago and I think the deferral bothers me more than a rejection letter does! I’m not very sure if I should apply ED2 instead of waiting for my last decision of Midd in the Spring. If I got accepted in ED2,I wouldn’t have the chance to wait for midd’s final decision. But if I should give up the chance and wait for my final decision, it will be killing me when I am waitlisted or rejected in RD!
Looks like a dilemma I’m in! So I’m opening the thread to ask if anyone here knows the admission rate for student who are deferred in ED by Midd and accepted in RD? I heard that deferred applicants are mostly likely to be waitlisted in RD, it that true?
Or if possible, can anybody tell me what I should do to enhance my candidacy in RD? I intend to write my “why essay” and send it to Midd. Any more ways?
Thank you very much guys! We are still hoping but I think sometimes we should face the fact whether or not we have any chance of accpetance in RD :(
