Yield for class of 2011 rose 5%, acceptance rate for class of 2012 to drop

<p>I stand corrected on the specifics — Georgetown and MIT are indeed EA. There are a few schools that are more selective ED than RD: BU, Tulane, URochester, Miami U-OH. Not exactly top-tier schools, but very respectable.</p>

<p>In the interest of full disclosure, I think that the data for BU is skewed by the fact that they are one of the schools with two ED deadlines that may be trying to manipulate their rankings - I alluded to that earlier. They probably accept the majority of their class through the ED programs, it is not a coincidence that they decline to provide this data to US News.</p>
