<p>GW Hatchet reports 24% more ED applicants than last year…</p>
<p>[Record</a> number apply early decision - News](<a href=“http://media.www.gwhatchet.com/media/storage/paper332/news/2009/11/16/News/Record.Number.Apply.Early.Decision-3833108.shtml]Record”>http://media.www.gwhatchet.com/media/storage/paper332/news/2009/11/16/News/Record.Number.Apply.Early.Decision-3833108.shtml)</p>
<p>Kudos to GW…</p>
<p>weird interview, however, with Millburn GC…she claims that ED apps are up because kids are concerned about the economy? isn’t that counterintuitive to what we have heard on CC? Those concerned about comparing FA packages are usually counseled to NOT apply ED…</p>
<p>Yes, I was surprised as well at the GC’s comments. It seems to go against the numbers that they see. I thought there would be more impact of the economy on ED, but I expect last year’s election helped the DC colleges quite a bit.</p>
