<p>There are so many NJ/NY applicants asking about chances, it might be better to combine everyone and let you see your own competition.</p>
<p>Remember UMDCP accepts @30% OOS, this includes foreigners, lets say 50% of that is from NJ/NY, this means in an acceptance class of 4000, 600 will be accepted from NJ/NY</p>
<p>It is better for you to see the comp. As a great example 1 applicant has 49 kids from their school in NJ applying, now add in your school.</p>
