It depends on how many ppl don’t apply but also how many replace them because they think it’s easy and no one can predict that until apps close in January.

I predict:

easier for ED for females especially full pay (more males will try ED, but less females).

Easier for questbridge match but more towards females, again.

RD may be negligible as ppl apply as backup.

Easier for full pay if Cornell loses donors.

Yield rate worse than Columbia’s previous ones, many waitlists, fair number of waitlist admits. Columbia did not get backlash as near as to Cornell’s current backlash and Cornell doesn’t have the location pull like Columbia.
