<p>Yes, I noticed the same phenomenon at my DC’s school. All ED’s to Ivies were either recruited athletes or URM’s and the rest - a lot of disappointed kids. And my DC tells me that they are counseled by their advisors to not ask the seniors about ED results unless the information is volunteered. </p>
