Not sure, but I’ve been wondering - S applied ED to a school a long distance from home and was admitted. His older sister is currently a junior at a different school of comparable ranking that is a couple of hours from his school. I wonder if the fact he has an older sibling who is attending a similar caliber school a long distance from home might have helped him in his admission. But I have no idea of that was considered or not.
