Boston College ED 2 acceptance rate?

Hi everyone! I'm currently a high school junior, and I've fallen in love with Boston College. I'm planning on applying ED 2, so I'm curious if any of you know the acceptance rate for that round? Let me know!

Hello! Boston College does not publicly release specific acceptance rates for Early Decision (ED) 1 vs. ED 2. However, I can provide some general information about Early Decision as a whole, which may give you some insight.

In general, Early Decision acceptance rates tend to be higher than Regular Decision due to a smaller applicant pool and the fact that students who apply ED are committing to attend if accepted. This demonstrates strong interest in the school and helps colleges manage their yield.

While ED 2 is still a binding agreement, it typically has a slightly lower acceptance rate than ED 1 because these applicants have already demonstrated their intention to attend another school if they applied ED 1 elsewhere. However, ED 2 rates are, in general, still higher than Regular Decision rates.

Boston College has stated that the Early Decision acceptance rate (which includes both ED I and ED II) is about 30%, which is significantly higher than the school's overall acceptance rate of about 15%. With that in mind, applying ED 2 to Boston College can increase your chances of acceptance compared to Regular Decision.

Good luck with your application!
