How can you say the ED applicants aren’t some of the strongest students, though? The interdisciplinary and joint-degree programs, as well as Wharton, will always attract a very high-caliber of applicants even during ED because they are THAT selective. The College, SEAS and Nursing also will take the best early applicants as well. Accepting strong candidates in the regular round does not guarantee matriculation, so Penn might not really be losing anything here by taking a slightly higher percentage of the ED pool than they have previously. Well, I guess the gain the lower admit rate lol
