<p>There were 15 Indians students admitted to MIT last year.

<p>i believe tht list means there were 15 Indian undergrads at MIT in 2004-2005. not 15 freshmen!</p>

<p>they take around 100 intl freshmens every year. 15% of tht from a single country would be kinda unfair i think. moreover there must already be a large % of American Indians applying as US citizens or perm citizens as well.</p>

<p>Aaron, I think u r right…</p>

1584

<p>Prachi Absolutely…BIG PROBLEM… if u go undecided.it is the worst part … u have to may be take a loan or some guarantee and after getting 1st year scholarship reduce it… if u go without proper finance at Consulate…chances are u will be rejected the VISA…</p>

<p>The fig cannot be the total as then the total students = 348/4 would be 86 student per year. which is not true… </p>

<p>U ppl forgot to note this :
Please note that the counts include international visiting, special, and exchange students for both the undergraduate and the graduate categories.
There are many istitutes which send exvhange students there.like NUS…may be some of them are indian …and others…
Just gueessing…
The pre.yr stats suggest only 3student per yr from india if your explanation are followed.then 3*3=9 …so it means 6 students were admitted in 2004…may be it is true…
Guess we can email the adcomm to get the details…</p>

1588

<p>just passing by…</p>

<p>4 undergrad admits in 2005 for MIT, and one indian from bangkok. I know them, cant be wrong. Definitely not 12 or 15. And considering the fact that three are NRIs (sort of), you can say they admitted only 2 bona-fide indians last year :P</p>

1589
