<p>soooo what do you guys think?</p>

<p>oh, and I forgot Syracuse for RD lol thanks!!</p>

<p>Only know Elon well and I would say “you’re in” as long as you have made contact with your area rep and demonstrated interest. </p>

<p>If not than I would say your chances are not quite 50/50. If it doesn’t work out EA than you will likely be deferred to the regular decision pool and if you want Elon and can tell them why then you will likely be accepted. Elon seems to always put together a class of students who are not only smart but really know what makes Elon different and why they want to attend. </p>

<p>Best of luck</p>
