Colleges and Universities A-Z Duke University

<p>From the Duke Chronicle Jan 10, 2013:</p>

<p>"Duke received 29,201 regular decision applications, which combined with early decision for a total of 31,741 applications, an increase of 0.4 percent from last year. The admittance rate for the roughly 950 spots remaining for regular decision applicants will likely be between 10 and 11 percent, Guttentag said. This would keep the regular decision acceptance rate constant with last year’s rate."</p>

<p>Should put RD acceptance rate at 10.5% versus 12% in 2016 and and overall 12% versus 13% last year.</p>

3

<p>950 spots end up being ~3000 accepted RD right?</p>

4

<p>Another record year for one of the world’s great universities.</p>

5

<p>If you go by last years numbers it would be 3.2 to 1 or for 950 spots or around 3050 RD acceptances.</p>

6

<p>Anyone know the trinity/Pratt percentages? I know Pratt has a higher acceptance rate but how many are admitted there?</p>

7

<p>^We can’t really know, so we could use last year as a reference maybe</p>

<p>For Trinity: 3,150 applicants accepted, 12% of applicants
For Pratt: 938 applicants accepted, 16 % of applicants</p>

<p>Trinity: 1,380 enrolled
Pratt: 341 enrolled</p>

<p>CRAZY</p>

<p>Well I won’t be in NC any time soon ;)</p>

<p>Man less than 1000 engineering? I think it’s okay though because not nearly as many apply to Pratt as in trinity…</p>

<p>“The admittance rate for the roughly 950 spots remaining for regular decision applicants will likely be between 10 and 11 percent, Guttentag said.”</p>

<p>Wow. I suspect they will barely make the 10% since they already admitted a 100 extra students in ED.</p>

<p>I am international applicant for RD. I have submitted all my applications. Please fill me in on what studying in the USA is like</p>

11

<p>Anybody! Please me peeps</p>

12

<p>compared to what?</p>

13

<p>Agreeing with texaspg, I don’t see how the acceptance rate could still hover around 12% when the U received more applications this year and there would be less worry over yield since 100 more people were accepted during ED.</p>

14

<p>Lol there goes any chance I had at being accepted</p>

15

<p>753 ED acceptances; ~3,050 RD acceptances (based on last years yield) for 952 spots totals ~3,800 acceptances. 3,800 / 31,741 total applications = 12%</p>
