Look at line B22 of Tulane’s CDS (or of any other school) as an example.

Very clear that Tulane’s spring scholars are off the cds usnwr books. Only kids that start in the fall are in the data set. Draw your own conclusions.

Clearly some admit buckets are more preferred by the school than others. An EA admit with big merit is a very strong target for the school. Defers and waitlisted and spring admits less strong obviously.
