[sbjdorlo]

I think @Mathlete811 was looking for deferral #s on Princeton, but I appreciate the info on Yale.

Here is the link to the article about Yale SCEA admissions.

Hey @Penn95, I started a thread on this year’s stats. Can we get a moderator to merge the threads into one thread and pin it? Would be helpful for me.

Brown:

"The University admitted 21 percent of its early decision applicants to the class of 2022, selecting 738 students from the largest early decision applicant pool in the University’s history, wrote Dean of Admission Logan Powell in an email to The Herald. The University saw almost a 10 percent increase in the size of its application pool from last year with 3502 applications in comparison to 3186 for the class of 2021, Powell wrote.

[sbjdorlo]

Maybe we can list the deferral rate, as well.

I have info on MIT from several non-linked sources. They make it clear that applying early isn’t advantageous.

MIT EA 664 out of 9557 (6.9%) (185 withdrew) 6210 deferred to RD (apx. 65%); rejected 2498.

[Penn95]

@foodsondaughter Penn received over 7,500 apps per an email sent to all the alumni interviewers on Thursday. The article reporting 7,074 apps was published a day before on Wednesday. So looks like the acceptance rate was 17.5%

Thanks @Penn95. I’d recommend using the value from the linked Daily Pennsylvanian article unless/until it is officially updated.

[justliviglife]

Northwestern https://dailynorthwestern.com/2017/12/05/campus/early-decision-applications-increase-6-percent-year Accepting “about” half the incoming class of 1925, 962/4058 = 23.7%

A site called Admissions Intel claims that 1073 are being accepted ED for a rate of 26%.

[vhsdad]

Anybody hear anything about the EA acceptance rate/stats for Caltech?

[bronze2]

With more applicants, schools are either filling the class earlier with EA/ED or bringing the admit rate down, and in many cases they are doing both!
