<p>Yellow_Jackets - </p>
<p>the college board info is about a year out of the date - last year was a little tougher: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-chicago/267741-early-action-application-volume-hits-record-high-chicago.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-chicago/267741-early-action-application-volume-hits-record-high-chicago.html</a></p>
<p>Chicago over-enrolled this year, so my guess is that it will be a bit tougher for this year’s applicants. It important to remember that CC kids tend to do better - statistically - that the mass of applicants. </p>
<p>From last year, the EA admissions + deferred/admitted rate was definitely more generous than RD - true for Chicago and most schools in general.</p>
