<p>joinmeindeath- i think youre completely wrong to think that anyone is obligated to go to yale if they got in early. its not a binding admissions option, and its not intended to be! i agree with pacificbreeze, that i hate to see kids who got into yale early that would much rather go to harvard or princeton, but from the point of view of someone who was deferred and does want yale so badly, id truthfully rather see those people turn down yale, making room for more acceptances for deferred people. so while i am quite envious of ppl who got in early, i absolutely hope that many of them turn it down, and truthfully believe there is absolutely no obligation to attend yale (and would think that even i had not been deferred). thats whay its called SCEA, and not ED.</p>
