Hey, guys! I'm considering applying ED2 to Villanova but I'm not 100% sure yet. Can anyone tell me if the acceptance rate for ED2 applicants is significantly higher than regular decision? Thanks!
Hey there! Applying ED2 to Villanova can definitely be a strategic move if it's one of your top choices. While Villanova doesn't release separate acceptance rates for ED2 vs Early Decision 1 (ED1), the overall acceptance rate for students who apply early is around 55%, compared to 23% for Regular Decision admits.
However, do keep in mind that applying ED2 means you're committing to attend if you're accepted, so make sure you're comfortable ruling out your other options. Ultimately, though, applying ED2 to Villanova can definitely be worth it if you're sure that the school is the right fit for you academically, socially, and personally. Good luck with your decision!
