<p>When Harvard eliminated early admissions, they could not accurately predict their yield, so they ended up accepting fewer students and taking 200 kids from the waitlist. (By comparison, last year they took 31 from the waitlist.)</p>
<p>With HYPS all having non-binding SCEA this year, Harvard and other top schools, will have an equally hard time predicting their yield. My best guess: Harvard will probably admit fewer students and take more students from the waitlist.</p>
