If you have a “reasonable chance” of being accepted to Columbia, you have a “reasonable chance” of being accepted to any top school.

</p>

<p>You forget two things:</p>

<p>(1) Applying to Columbia ED boosts one’s admissions chance by more than a factor of 2:</p>

<p>(2) The admit rate to Columbia SEAS is approximately 2X higher than that to Columbia College.</p>

@yoda16

I’d venture to guess the vast majority of ED students at any top school actually prefer that school.

<p>Guess again.</p>
